The Devil's Highway: A True Story Book

In May 2001, a group of 26 men attempted to cross the Mexican border into the desert of southern Arizona, through the deadliest region of the continent, the Devil's Highway.These men-fathers and sons, brothers and strangers-entered a desert so harsh and desolate that even the Border Patrol is afraid to travel through it. Nights are frigid and days are so hot that dead bodies naturally mummify within minutes. Only 12 men came back out. Now Luis Urrea, who has won multiple awards for his writing about the border, tells the story of this modern, real-life adventure through a hellish no-man's-land where desperate dreams clash with the nearly invincible odds against survival. Spectacularly written, THE DEVIL'S HIGHWAY is a fluorescent cross of Jon Krakauer, Charles Bowden, Juan Rulfo, and the Book of Revelation. It is as blazingly brilliant as the desert sun, with the bite of a chupacabra. It is the great leap forward for Luis Urrea.Read More
