Recenzii

"Combining cutting-edge theoretical constructs with hard facts, the authors provide us with a landmark study of the causes and processes of emigration from Mexico to the United States. This book is a must-read for all Mexican and Chicano scholars." -- John Mason Hart, University of Houston, Author of Empire and Revolution: The Americans in Mexico Since the Civil War
"In A Century of Chicano History, authors Fernandez and Gonzalez argue persuasively for the centrality of the changing dynamic of late 19th and 20th century American economic and cultural expansion in Mexico in the making of the Chicano community in America. Clear, concise, and readable, A Century of Chicano History provides a new framework for the study of Chicano history. Stimulating in approach, this fine book will have a wide readership." -- Zaragosa Vargas, University of California, Santa Barbara, Author of Major Problems in Mexican American History: Documents and Essays
"Should be required reading for scholars of U.S., Latin American, and borderlands history." -- Jose Angel Hernandez, Hispanic American Historical Review
