Add to basketEl Paso del Norte: Historias que No Conocías te lleva por siglos de historia compartida entre Ciudad Juárez y El Paso, Texas, dos ciudades hermanas unidas por el Río Bravo y separadas por una frontera que ha marcado generaciones. Desde los primeros habitantes de la región y el Camino Real, pasando por la Ley Seca y el legendario Kentucky Club, hasta el auge industrial moderno y el crecimiento de Horizon City, este libro reconstruye episodios poco conocidos -algunos oscuros, otros extraordinarios- que forjaron la identidad de El Paso del Norte. Con investigación cuidadosa y un tono directo que no rehúye los temas difíciles, esta obra bilingüe es un homenaje a la memoria fronteriza y a quienes la vivieron.
Alberto S.B. is a Cuban-born author and entrepreneur based in El Paso, Texas. Born in Havana's Vedado neighborhood, he is a direct descendant of the Stout and Brown family lines chronicled in this book. His research into his own family history - spanning Cuba, Mexico, and the American Southwest - led him to uncover the extraordinary story of two Buffalo Soldier ancestors who survived the 1898 explosion of the USS Maine.
What the Maine Could Not Sink is the result of years of genealogical research and a lifelong desire to preserve his family's legacy. Alberto continues to write and share the histories that connect generations across borders and centuries.
