Discover the history, culture, traditions, and lived experiences of Mexican Americans in the United States.

With over 37.2 million Mexican Americans in the United States, Mexican Americans constitute the largest immigrant group in the US. Though neighbors with the United States, Mexico has its own unique culture, history, and customs, all of which immigrants bring with them when they come to the US.

This volume explores what it means to be a Mexican American, covering topics such as language, food, religion, holidays, economics, education, gender roles, assimilation, media, and notable people, to name a few. Starting with an introduction to Mexican history and then delving into the factors and aspects of daily life for Mexican Americans, the book offers an insight into this ethnic group and how they contribute to the American Mosaic.

Roger Bruns is a prolific author who has written many titles for Bloomsbury, including Border Towns and Border Crossings: A History of the U.S.-Mexico Divide (2019), Documents of the Chicano Movement (2018), and Zoot Suit Riots (2014).
