520    Journalist Rivera examines the growth of the Hispanic 
       population in the U.S., fueled partly by what may be the 
       single most divisive issue in America today: illegal 
       immigration. With objective clarity and personal 
       conviction, Rivera sheds light on an issue that is muddled
       with confusion and prejudice--and too often blamed for 
       everything from terrorism to welfare. Examining the past--
       his own parents' struggle to be "real" Americans, as well 
       as the plight of other ethnic groups in their quest for 
       that dream--Rivera places the issue of illegal immigration
       in a historic context, dispelling the myth that we are 
       facing an unprecedented crisis.--From publisher
