Description
"Mexico and America have met for eight generations on their shared border. In this compelling book, photographer Jeffrey Gusky and historian Benjamin Johnson capture this encounter through their mesmerizing portrayal of Roma, Texas." "In a time when the border is a source of controversy and division, Johnson's unexpected tales and Gusky's haunting photographs demonstrate how deeply the story of the border is also the story of America itself."--book jacket.
