My husband has just done that — from what his grandparents and other elders born in the 19th century told him. It took him some 15 years. He is now in his 90s and now, finally, his book is in press, some 600 pages, at the Universidad de San Marcos, and they say that it will be used not only in Tupe but in the whole Province for students in high school so they may have a history of their own. It is time.<BR>
<BR>
He drew three maps, one for before the Spanish, one for after and one modern. And now he’s thinking of the next book, of all the more that he’s remembered. <BR>

More of the material/consumerism I see today is becoming less important and I find myself thinking about the many things from all my grandparents/elders I thought I had forgotten. I realize now, they knew I would remember....<BR>
