SEA AND SALT BOOK PRESENTATION

This is the story of a man and his family in the face of the adversities that life presents him. The sea is the Gulf of Mexico where, between hurricanes and shipwrecks, the unbendable fighting character of the protagonist is tempered, and learns to never give up, turning disasters into opportunities for improvement. The salt is the field of labor that brings hope to this tenacious Yucatecan, who learns to reap benefits for himself and his community.

Sea and Salt is much more than a historical novel of epic and entertaining tales of the fascinating Yucatan Peninsula, it's a coming-of-age story in the exciting and promising Mexico of the 20th Century, where the spirit of work defined an entire generation of company captains and social leaders. Filial love is the basis for determining loyalty, commitment, and honor.

This novel is available at Amazon either Kindle or paper and in English or Spanish.

Pedro Peón Roche, born Mérida in 1966, architect by profession and salt industrial by occupation. His lifelong devotion to adventure has taken him to ocean sailing, diving, cave diving, archeological expeditions in remote jungles, biking, and so on. He is a founder partner of the Yucatan Sailing Club, and Yucatan Sports Fishing Club, and his passion for Yucatecan culture pushed him to found the CCY (Yucatecan Cultural Circle) that promotes self-taught history based on our Peninsula. He has participated in the edition of the following books "Travel Diary 1927" about the Mexican religious persecution on the trip made by his great grandfather and the Archbishop of Yucatan to Europe and the Middle East, the poem book "A Distant Lighthouse" written by his son, and now the historical novel "Sea and Salt" about the 20th century Yucatan life of his grandfather. All these books have been presented in the most demanding local auditoriums of our city and the latest work is becoming such a great success that has arrived to Spanish Universities like Cadiz and Navarra and also to UC-Mexicanistas, based in California USA and soon to be in the FIL (International Book Fair) in Guadalajara for November 2023.
