 British Hidalgo
The country of British Hidalgo exists on no map known to contemporary geographers, yet this tiny Central American country is richly evoked in the writings of Avram Davidson.
The seven stories featuring Jack Limekiller are rooted in Davidson's two-month visit to British Honduras in 1965-1966, when the question of independence was a burning issue in the colony.
In the Limekiller stories, Davidson retraced much of his Dragons in the Trees itinerary and transmuted his earlier observations into a work unique in modern fantasy.

 Science Fiction Book Reviews
ack Lutwidge Limekiller (that middle name inherited from the Charles Dodgson side of the family) is a young, burly, fairly handsome and blond Canadian expatriate living in the warm, sunny and very supernatural country of British Hidalgo, down Central America way.
Having fallen in love with Felix and she with him, Jack finds himself at loose ends in "Limekiller at Large," while Felix is away.
As for Davidson's appetite for life and his simultaneous disdain and revulsion for the more tawdry aspects of it (not that he didn't appreciate them too), the reader will leave this book feeling along with Jack that life is harsh at times, yet overall quite a wonderful thing.
