Morgan writes a truly \"borderland\" book enmeshed in the regional histories of both countries. The writing style is approachable for non-specialists, while the maps and images that are included add welcomed visual qualities to the narrative. It will serve as an excellent text in most graduate seminars covering the field of Borderlands History.\"-Michael K.

Military units, settlers, and boosters dispossessed Southern Apache peoples of their homelands and attempted to erase the histories of Mexican colonists in the Lower Mimbres Valley region. As a result, people of multiple racial and national identities came together to forge new border communities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In \u003ci\u003eRaid and Reconciliation\u003c\/i\u003e Brandon Morgan examines the story of Pancho Villa’s 1916 raid on Columbus, New Mexico-an event that has been referenced in various histories of the border and the Mexican Revolution but not contextualized on its own-and shows that violence was integral to the modern capitalist development that shaped the border. \u003ci\u003eRaid and Reconciliation\u003c\/i\u003e provides new insights into the Mexican Revolution and sheds light on the connections between violence and modernization. Lessons from this border story resonate in today’s debates over migration, race, and what it means to be an American.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eList of Illustrations\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e Introduction: The Lower Mimbres Valley and Landscapes of Violence\u003cbr\u003e 1. “\u003cbr\u003eFrom That Place Comes Only Evil”\u003cbr\u003e: Chihene Dispossession in the New Mexico–\u003cbr\u003eChihuahua Borderlands\u003cbr\u003e 2.
