I read this one several years ago and remember enjoying it although it wasn't one of my favorite Michener's. I remember it did give a good overview of Mexican culture, bullfighting, and its history, etc.
Mexico
Author: James A. Michener
"Astounding...Fast-moving, Intriguing...James Michener is back in huge, familiar form with MEXICO." — LOS ANGELES DAILY NEWS — Here is the story of an American journalist who travels to Mexico to report on the upcoming duel between two great matadors, but who is ultimately swept up in the dramatic story of his Mexican ancestors.

I chose this from the M books. I've never read a Michener novel. Now's my chance.
