<br/><br/> "Coyotes are gathering. Their pickups and SUVs toss silver clouds into the desert twilight. Three sets of headlights, maybe four, bounce across the darkening expanse, all coming from different directions toward a run-down rancheria barely into Sonora. In a time not long ago but somehow forgotten, Mexican vaqueros herded cattle here, to within reach of U.S. markets. The corrals still stand, as do some weathered outbuildings. But cows are no longer driven to this place near the border. People are. The rancheria is still, aside from shadows that sporadically flash in doorways or drift along fencelines. They come in and out of binocular sight until the gnarled Sierra Madre horizon fades to black, and generator lights flicker on and undulate, like tribal fire on the eve of war. U.S. homeowners two miles away look through their living-room windows and witness the scene, ordinary as the evening news--the coyotes, their headlights, the shadows, and another new shipment of flesh and blood." (AMERICAN LEGION MAGAZINE) The author examines the impact of illegal immigration on the economy and national security of the United States.
