From the author of Europe Central, winner of the National Book Award, a journalistic tour de force along the Mexican-American border – a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award For generations of migrant workers, Imperial Country has held the promise of paradise and the reality of hell. It sprawls across a stirring accidental sea, across the deserts, date groves and labor camps of Southeastern California, right across the border into Mexico. In this eye-opening book, William T. Vollmann takes us deep into the heart of this haunted region, exploring polluted rivers and guarded factories and talking with everyone from Mexican migrant workers to border patrolmen. Teeming with patterns, facts, stories, people and hope, this is an epic study of an emblematic region.

Southern California is a region of great geologic and topographic diversity. The land in this region may be divided into four natural landform areas or provinces, mainly based on distinctive physiographic characteristics. This monograph will concern itself only with a portion of two of these natural regions: the Colorado Desert Province and the Peninsular Ranges Province. The geographical characteristics to be considered for this area are geomorphology, climate, soils, biogeography, and human presence. Special emphasis shall be given to the description of those physical phenomena which help relate the story of early man in the area.
