It's alright
 
Review Date: June 28, 2010
Reviewer: jmo,
For a paperback book it took a lot longer to ship than usual. I ordered it and a week later is when they packaged it up and shipped it. So, I didn't get it for about 2 weeks after I ordered it. The book is good and gives good insight on illegal immigration.
You are there!

Reviewer: Louis Begil, Fullerton,CA.
The author is such a great writer that I felt that I was with him on his adventures, sharing meals,tradegies, and being with the "guys" on their trips. This book rates as one of the best books I've ever read. A++
Great book to Introduce a Latino Studies Course

Reviewer: Eve Veliz, Rhode Island
My students always thoroughly enjoy this book. It is an easy yet poignant read and makes the issue of Latino immigration more "real" for many students. I would recommend this book for an Introductory Sociology course.
Read it!

As good as a journalistic effort can get...

Like Orwell's Down and Out in London and Paris, times TWO!

Should be on the shelves of anyone with an opinion on immigration, pro or con.

Should be on the shelves of and journalist to teach them what it is all about.

Thanks for this seminal work.

Well written, unique "birds eye view"
 
Review Date: April 7, 2008
Reviewer: freezing in Boston,
I purchased this book for my book club, and although I was a bit perplexed by the choice (living in New England where the immigration problem is not so obvious), I was actually pleasantly surprised.
The topic is one that should be on everyone's mind with respect to the immigration problem in our country.
However, this fresh, personal perspective does give us a "birds eye view" of the life of the Mexican immigrant culture, and how difficult and complex it is. I especially found the book interesting having grown up in California, and observing first hand, what a complicated economic and social problem immigration really is for the immigrants and natives alike.
Although a bit slow in parts, it did give a refreshing insight to the culture that may not have been captured by a mere casual observer. On the other hand, I found the chapter set in the airport quite fascinating and entertaining!
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in the Hispanic immigrant culture.
