A stunningly beautiful backdrop where cultures meet, meld, and
thrive, the U.S.OCoMexico borderlands is one of the most dynamic
regions in the Americas. "On the Border" explores little-known
corners of this fascinating area of the world in a rich collection
of essays. Beginning with an exploration of mining and the rise of
Tijuana, the book examines a number of aspects of the region's
social and cultural history, including urban growth and housing,
the mysterious underworld of border-town nightlife, a film noir
treatment of the Peteet family suicides, borderlands cuisine, the
life of squatters, and popular religion. As stimulating as it is
lively, "On the Border" will spark a new appreciation for the range
of social and cultural experiences in the borderlands."
