Gender on the Borderlands captures the intense; complex; and gendered experience of those living along the barbwire borderlands of Mexico and the United States. Through scholarship; testimonials; oral histories; songs; poetry; and art; the contributors reclaim the borderlands from the distortions and violence of “official†history and continue the recovery of a gendered Chicana/Chicano history begun by Gloria Anzaldúa in Borderlands/La Frontera more than twenty years ago.

Read either Lewis or Clark; if not it is confusing.By Kindle CustomerIt was a book I have wanted to read and it had some real insights into the way things were. described a 28 foot fish skeleton and a 61/2 pound rabbit. Curiouser and curiouser.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Expedition DiscoveryBy j.s.I had never read the journals of the expedition. I gave only four stars for the lack of pictorials or drawings as that is left to the imagination of the reader. Anyone interested in early American History would likely find this interesting and informative enough to get through what I would call somewhat rough reading. Recommended.
