Familia: Migration and Adaptation in Baja and Alta California, 1880-1975Anthropologists, historians, and sociologists will find here a striking challenge to accepted explanations of the northward movement of migrants from Mexico into the United States. Alvarez investigates the life histories of pioneer migrants and their offspring, finding a human dimension to migration which centers on the family.

Alvarez shows how cultural stability actually increased as migrants settled in new locations, bringing their common values and memories with them. |
