She has shared meals with border residents, listened to their stories, and visited their homes, churches, hospitals, farms, and jails. In this dazzling portrait of one of the least understood and most debated regions in the country, Hendricks introduces us to the ordinary Americans and Mexicans who live there-cowboys and Indians, factory workers and physicians, naturalists and nuns. A new picture of the borderlands emerges, and we find that this region is not the dividing line so often imagined by Americans, but is a common ground alive with the energy of cultural exchange and international commerce, burdened with too-rapid growth and binational conflict, and underlain with a deep sense of history. 606 $aInternational relations 607 $aMexican-American Border Region$xSocial conditions 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aInternational relations. 676 $a303.48/209721 700 $aHendricks$b Tyche$01051493 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459111703321 996 $aThe wind doesn't need a passport$92482028 997 $aUNINA
