Baja Books by Graham Mackintosh

Into a Desert Place

Journey with a Baja Burro

Nearer My Dog to Thee

Marooned With Very Little Beer

Graham Mackintosh, a native of London, England, first visited the Baja in 1979.  In 1983 he set a goal to walk around the Baja Coastline.  The 3,000 mile trip changed his life.  Upon returning to England he wrote Into a Desert Place and received the “Adventurous Traveler of the Year” award.  Returning to the Baja in 1997, Graham began a 1,000 mile Journey With a Baja Burro, from the U.S. border to Loreto, visiting the missions along the way.  Graham spent four months in 2001 in the Sierra San Pedro Martir with two street dogs, which became the subject of his third book, Nearer My Dog to Thee.  Marooned With Very Little Beer, published in 2008, tells of his 2 months hiking and kayaking the second largest island in the Sea of Cortez, Isla Angel de la Guarda.

Graham currently lives in San Diego where he gives slide shows on his trips, writes articles on the Baja and has guided tourists south of the border on various tours.  He is married to Bonni, a nurse, who shares his love for the Baja and nature.
