I think I forgot to tell you this: Into the Beautiful North is now an iphone app!

It's summertime and doesn't a road trip sound like the perfect plan? Into The Beautiful North releases in paperback next week. But you can ride along with Nayeli and Tacho now on your iphone.

Even better, you can practice your Spanish by trying Rumbo al Hermosa Norte, the Spanish version in an iphone app.

And for those of you who'd like to understand more about immigration and crossing the border, The Devil's Highway is also available for your iphone.
