Bøker av Daniel D. Arreola

Daniel D. Arreola's Postcards from the Chihuahua Border is a colorful and dynamic visual history of Mexico's northern border. Drawing on more than three decades of archival work, Arreola invites the reader to time travel, to revisit another era--the first half of the last century--when the border towns of Ciudad Juárez, Ojinaga, and Palomas were framed and made popular through picture postcards.

Making innovative use of an extensive archive of photo postcards, this historical geography traces the transformation of Mexican border towns into modern cities and destinations for American tourists in the twentieth century.

How Texans of Mexican ancestry have established a cultural province in this Texas-Mexico borderland that is unlike any other Mexican American region.
