La vida de Costa Rica
Also available in Spanish with the title: Costa Rica Pura Vida
Few correspondences between name and reality are as exact as the one that occurs in the case of Costa Rica. Emerging from the same seabed in recent geological times and always populated by people of noble temperament and iron will, Costa Rica is an example among nations. There, plurality and tolerance are daily practices that "reflected in an admirable real coexistence of races, creeds, ideologies and professions" have allowed it to acquire its proverbial democratic character and the social stability that characterize it.
This book is dedicated to that exceptional country, a prodigious journey, captured in the endearing images of the Costa Rican photographer Gloria Calderón, who also wrote the texts that illustrate them and the essay that opens the volume.
