From Dead in Their Tracks to Lives on the Line, read about historical, social, economic, and environmental factors that make the border what it is today. Check out stories about the immigrants, like Philip Garrison's Because I Don't Have Wings, letters from immigrants to their families back home in Between the Lines, and even a collection of literature with border origins, Writing on the Edge.
