 \n\n"Sand and Blood: America's Stealth War on the Mexico Border" is a 
 damning portrait of the southern border, where militaristic fantasies are 
 being unleashed and violent technologies are being tested, always targeting 
 impoverished immigrants.\n\nThe groundwork for our current situation began 
 in the 1980s and 1990s. But after 9/11, while Americans' attention was 
 trained on the Middle East, a War on Terror was ramping up on our own 
 soil-aimed not at terrorists but at economic migrants, refugees, and 
 families from South and Central America seeking jobs, safety, and freedom 
 in the US. The Border Patrol grew exponentially, ICE detention centers 
 cropped up across the country, and the southern border has become more 
 militarized than ever before. But we are no safer. Instead, families are 
 being ripped apart, undocumented people are living in fear, and thousands 
 of migrants have died in detention or crossing the border. \n\n"John Carlos 
 Frey is one of the finest examples I know of a journalist who cares. His 
 tireless efforts for years to expose injustices along America's southern 
 border are particularly impressive when gathered together in one book. We 
 need more ... journalists like this." -Fred Peabody, director, All 
 Governments Lie and The Corporate Coup d'Etat\n\nJohn Carlos Frey is an 
 investigative reporter and documentary filmmaker based in Los Angeles. A 
 five-time Emmy Award winner, he is a special correspondent for PBS 
 NewsHour. His investigative work has been featured on 60 Minutes, PBS, and 
 Dan Rather Reports, and in the Los Angeles Times, the Huffington Post, 
 Salon, Need to Know online, the Washington Monthly, and El Diario.\n\n$12 
 advance, $15 door.\n
