Coyotes by Ted Conover

To discover what becomes of Mexicans who cross into the United States without a visa, acclaimed author and journalist Ted Conover traveled and worked alongside them for more than a year. This is the chronicle of his journey.

"Absorbing...Sharply obseverd and sympathetic."--The New York Times

"Ted Conover has written a book about the Mexican poor that is at once intimate and epic. Coyotes is travel literature, social protest, and affirmation. I can compare this book to the best of George Orwell's journeys to the heart of poverty." --Richard Rodriguez, author of Brown and Hunger of Memory
Ted Conover is the author of several books including Newjack: Guarding Sing Sing (winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize) and Rolling Nowhere: Riding the Rails with America's Hoboes. His writing has appeared in The New York Times Magazine, The Atlantic Monthly, The New Yorker, and National Geographic. The recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, he is Distinguished Writer-in-Residence in the Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute at New York University. He lives in New York City.
