14 Miles: Building the Border Wall,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
An esteemed journalist delivers a compelling ontheground account of the construction of President Trumps border wall in San Diegoand the impact on the lives of local residents.In August of 2019, Donald Trump finished building his border wallat least a portion of it. In San Diego, the Army Corps of engineers completed two years of construction on a 14mile steel beamed barrier that extends eighteenfeet high and cost a staggering $147 million. As one border patrol agent told reporters visiting the site, It was funded and approved and it was built under his administration. It is Trumps wall. 14 Miles is a definitive account of all the dramatic construction, showing readers what it feels like to stand on both sides of the border looking up at the imposing and controversial barrier.After the Department of Homeland Security announced an open call for wall prototypes in 2017, DW Gibson, an awardwinning journalist and Southern California native, began visiting the construction site and watching as the prototype samples were erected. Gibson spent those two years closely observing the work and interviewing local residents to understand how it was impacting them. These include April McKee, a border patrol agent leading a recruiting program that trains teenagers to work as agents; Jeff Schwilk, a retired Marine who organizes prowall rallies as head of the group San Diegans for Secure Borders; Roque De La Fuente, an eccentric millionaire developer who uses the construction as a promotional opportunity; and Civile Ephedouard, a Haitian refugee who spent two years migrating through Central America to the United States and anxiously awaits the results of his asylum case.Fascinating, propulsive, and incredibly timely, 14 Miles is an important work that explains not only how the wall has reshaped our landscape and countless lives but also how its shadow looms over our very identity as a nation.
