Welcome! My book, Berkeley to Beijing, is currently at the publisher. It should be available for purchase in late April or early May. Greg is creating a book website. The book will be available online from our website, Amazon and Barnes&Noble (at a minimum). I don't know yet which physical stores will carry the book.

It took me over a decade to write this book. Yet, I can't believe I am finally discussing book cover design, back jacket text and photo positioning. As we have news and dates get solidified, I will keep you informed here.

Brief book synopsis appears on bottom left panel of blog.

    Karen,

    After your book is published, I hope you will allow me to publish farmworker movement-related excerpts on farmworkermovent.us
