The author's painstaking research and attention to detail is obvious in the writing of this book. There were many facts that I only discovered after reading this!

I learned a lot about U.S. immigration policy by reading this book. The author explains how the situation at the southern border came to be and how it has resulted in far too many deaths. In addition to facts and data, he also digs into the heart of the matter, which is that people will continue to leave their countries - regardless of walls, deadly crossing areas, or anything else - if their home situations do not change. This is a worthwhile book.

Eye opening and quite informative in regards to what is actually occurring on the US-Mexico border. Some of the information here is surprising, and most does not get the attention it deserves in regards to media coverage. Anyone that feels that they are knowledgeable about the "border crisis", and wants to gain some additional knowledge should read this book.
