Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a detailed examination of migratory farmworkers from southern Texas. The author examines the composition of these migratory households and the role the size of these households plays in perpetuating the need for migration. The book also uncovers the reasons why some families ultimately choose to leave the migratory stream permanently. These families often struggle to find non-seasonal work in areas where they have seasonal ties, while others make a more permanent move away from the area entirely. The author provides exclusive data on the characteristics and working conditions of these migrant populations, as well as historical context of their working situations, their motivations, and in-depth perspectives on the challenges and triumphs they face. This book provides a multifaceted view of the complexities facing migratory workers and the systems that perpetuate their circumstances.
