Bücher der Reihe D.J. WEBER SERIES NEW BORDERLANDS

Making a vital contribution to our understanding of North American borderlands history through an examination of the northernmost stretches of the US-Canada border, Andrea Geiger highlights the role that the North Pacific borderlands played in the construction of race and citizenship on both sides of the border from 1867 to the end of World War II.

Through multiple perspectives from both sides of the border, the collected essays in These Ragged Edges argue that rapidly changing conditions along the US-Mexico border through the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries have powerfully shaped the ebb and flow of conflict within the region.
