In the Sierra Madre
I spend a lot of time in the Sierra Madre. Despite the fact that Biggers changed the name of the village where he lived, I was easily able to identify it due to over 20 trips the area. Having been there many times, I guess I have my own bias. I felt that the book was at its best when Biggers detailed life with the local Raramuri. I felt that his digressions about the various outsiders who made trips to the area were things that I had to force myself to get through in order to get some more tidbits about the Raramuri in "Mawichi". Not that I don't care about Upton Sinclair and Sergei Eisenstein, et al., but I really felt that those interludes took away from what I felt was the real heart of the story: an outsider's experience with a quickly changing culture that is attempting to integrate modernity with their traditional lifestyle.
