Go to your library, and ask them if they have a copy or could they borrow from another library in their network, the book:
"The Land of Shorter Shadows"
It is an entertaining book about an expedition in 1948 in a power wagon all the way down Baja, when it was even more rugged than today.
The author was Earle Stanley Gardiner, the creator of Perry Mason. He had writing talent which helps it be a good read.
They are on ebay too, but sorta pricey.
