Gringos: A History of U.S. Citizens in Latin America

This book serves only as a sampler of all the U.S. American individuals throughout history that have crossed the border for reasons of their own. Some of these travelers came for adventure, others to escape being arrested for crimes committed in the United States. Lots came for employment opportunities that they did not have in the U.S. and some came to escape slavery. Some came to fight in wars and others to find peace.
