From the Publisher

"Every generation or so, we are served a compelling reminder of migrant farmwork and of the men, women, and children whose daily hardships put the food on our tables. Nancy Buirski traversed the country for four years to create this book, a sensitive portrait of a forgotten society. Her subject is the unique lives of those she has photographed: migrant farmworker children. They are children caught in a life of poverty and backbreaking work whose moves from place to place leave them lacking in self confidence and lagging behind in school. The children in these pages are appealing and heroic and not easily forgotten. "144 pages, size: 9 1/4 x 11 3/4." Paperback book. ISBN: 0-87654-073-6."--© Pomegranate
