Description

In Mexifornia, author Victor Davis Hanson ponders what has changed in California over the last quarter-century. His con-cern is how the state, the Southwest, and indeed the entire nation have been altered by America’s hemorr-haging borders and how our disordered immigration policies are perhaps most harmful to the Mexican immigrants who come seeking a better life.

While Mexifornia is a look at the ambition and vigor of people who have made California strong, it is also an indictment of the policies that got California into its present mess and that could also affect Americans who inhabit “Mexizona,” “Mexichusetts” and other states of becoming.
