"I believe high school students would be able to read this book. It provides a great overview of Laitno's history in America. It is also an easy read."
"I am not sure I would call this a "left leaning" outlook except in some of the author's sugestions. However it is a fair history of the Latin American's emmigration to the US and his contributions to this country; the struggles and prejudices he has endured, and his value to our shared culture. I have given this book to friends who are working with and living with Hispanics."
