Reseña del libro "North to Aztlan: A History of Mexican Americans in the United States (Paperback) (en Inglés)"

Contemporary observers often quip that the American Southwesthas become “Mexicanized,” but this view ignores thehistory of the region as well as the social reality. Mexican peopleand their culture have been continuously present in the territoryfor the past four hundred years, and Mexican Americans were actorsin United States history long before the national media began tofocus on them—even long before an international borderexisted between the United States and Mexico.North to Aztlán, an inclusive, readable, and affordablesurvey history, explores the Indian roots, culture, society,lifestyles, politics, and art of Mexican Americans and thecontributions of the people to and their influence on Americanhistory and the mainstream culture.Though cognizant of changing interpretations that dividescholars, Drs. De León and Griswold del Castillo provide aholistic vision of the development of Mexican American society, onethat attributes great importance to immigration (before and after1900) and the ongoing influence of new arrivals on the evolvingidentity of Mexican Americans. Also showcased is the role of genderin shaping the cultural and political history of La Raza, asexemplified by the stories of outstanding Mexicana and Chicanaleaders as well as those of largely unsung female heros, among themranch and business owners and managers, labor leaders, communityactivists, and artists and writers. In short, readers will comeaway from this extensively revised and completely up-to-date secondedition with a new understanding of the lives of a people whocurrently compose the largest minority in the nation.Completely revised, re-edited, and redesigned, featuring a greatmany new photographs and maps, North to Aztlán is certain totake its rightful place as the best college-level survey text ofAmericans of Mexican descent on the market today.
