“[A] tightly-coiled, unpredictable book … Harding makes his ambitious, continent-crossing arguments in economical, sometimes elegant, usually understated prose.”—Andy Beckett, Guardian
“Beyond its investigative insight, Border Vigils is also a groundbreaking chronicle of migrant voices rarely heard. Ranging from the southern shores of Italy and the backstreets of England to the embattled US–Mexico front line, Harding’s brilliant work could not be more timely—and timeless.”—Jeff Biggers, author of State Out of the Union: Arizona and the Final Showdown Over the American Dream
