Introducing Cecil Herbert Woolley - wealthy, educated, affected,
infuriating, well-spoken, well-dressed, a gentleman, a curious
sort, a well-rounded chap, a lover of art, a one-time ladies man,
witty and occasionally wise, once attractive and now well worn,
functionally alcoholic, kind to animals and a so-so pianist. Cecil
Herbert Woolley is also a consulting detective, world renowned for
his knowledge of, and some say first-hand experience with, the
occult. The Blood Red Heiress, David Keyes' second novel, is a
rollicking, cocktail-fueled occult mystery featuring the detective
Cecil Herbert Woolley, his manservant Benedict and the love of his
life, Clemency de la Tour.
This volume provides the most recent snapshot of a vibrant,
transnational Mexican community that has been the object of
researchers' attention since 1976. Based on fieldwork conducted in
2013 in Tlacuitapa, Jalisco, and in its U.S. satellite communities,
the book examines both recent migration trends and the ways in
which migration to the United States is shaping the health
circumstances and experiences of migrants and those whom they leave
behind. Building on previous research concerning the impacts of the
Great Recession of 2007-09 on decisions to migrate and to settle in
the United States, the researchers show how economic and social
factors exert much greater influence on decisions to settle in the
United States or return to Mexico than U.S. policy measures, such
as border enforcement and the Obama administration's program to
suspend deportation of young undocumented migrants. Health-related
issues explored in this book include access to health care on both
sides of the border, chronic disease management, workplace health
hazards, and migration-related factors influencing the risk of HIV
transmission. These issues are hardly unique to Tlacuitapa; they
broadly characterize other high-emigration communities in Mexico.
What makes the most recent research done among Tlacuitapenses
unique is that it is part of a sustained effort to document social,
economic, and policy-related phenomena occurring in a specific
migrant-sending community and its U.S. expatriate communities over
nearly four decades, using a multidisciplinary, binational
approach.
The Wall Between Us examines the experiences indigenous Mixteco
migrants from Oaxaca living in the United States and their family
members who remain in Mexico. Covering topics that range from
border crossing experiences to the education of youth to mental
health, the book provides a scholarly analysis of current migration
from Mexico to the United States.
