Review
“It does rely on the new Tejano history of the last 20 to 25 years. It covers essential events and highlights the lives of prominent Tejanos (including “heroes/sheroes”). . . . well written in a manner that appeals to a general audience. It is complemented by excellent quotes (primary sources) and illustrations.”--Arnoldo De Leon, San Angelo State University (Arnoldo De Leon, San Angelo State University)
