We are living in the great age of human migration. Some 200 million people alive today have moved from their countries of origin and, according to a recent international survey, as many as 700 million more would migrate if they could. The political reaction—in Europe no less than in the United States—has been to batten down the hatches. More than a million migrants have been expelled from the US during Barack Obama’s administration, a record rate.
Jeremy Harding’s evocative reporting across Europe and on the US–Mexican border provides fascinating, haunting portraits of migrants, as well as the less inspiring and sometimes frightening profiles of the anti-immigrant zealots who oppose them. Equally unparalleled is Harding’s comparative analysis of the failure, indeed, mirage of exclusionary policy in both Europe and the US.

Beyond its investigative insight, Border Vigils is also a ground-breaking 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
Praise for The Uninvited: A remarkable book ... Succinct, witty and judicious --Daily Telegraph
Praise for The Uninvited: A gripping blend of reportage and analysis. --Independent
