Reviews

Central Americans on a dangerous transit through Mexico to the United States can only make it by relying on strangers for information, emotional support, and mutual aid. Yet the predations of strangers pose lethal risks. This instant classic of migration ethnography shows how people caught in a terrible dilemma find ways to 'walk together.' --David Scott FitzGerald, author of Refuge Beyond Reach: How Rich Democracies Repel Asylum Seekers
