NAFTA Stories
Author: Ann E. Kingsolver
Publisher: Lynne Rienner Publishers
ISBN: 9781555879747

Book Description
Ann Kingsolver presents stories people have tole about NAFTA - young people and old, urban and rural, with differing political perspectives, occupations, and other markers of identity - that demonstrate their expectations and imaginations of the sweeping trade agreement.
