Book Description
Now in paperback, the provocative book that has ignited fiery debate and created a dialogue among women about the state of motherhood today. In THE MOMMY MYTH, Susan Douglas and Meredith Michaels turn their 'sharp, funny, and fed-up prose' (San Diego Union Tribune) toward the cult of the new momism, a trend in Western culture that suggests that women can only achieve contentment through the perfection of mothering. Even so, the standards of this ideal remain out of reach, no matter how hard women try to 'have it all'. THE MOMMY MYTH skilfully maps the distance travelled from the days when THE FEMININE MYSTIQUE demanded more for women than keeping house and raising children, to today's not-so-subtle pressure to reverse this trend. A must-read for every woman.

Book Description
The Illicit American is a true story about Raymond Cass Archuleta. The story is propelled by intrigue, violence, love, hate, wanton sex, humor, and revenge. Cass, 28, is the Illicit American. A once honorable man, he is forced by poverty into smuggling illegal aliens to support his destitute family. Vowing to engage in the repugnant profession only until he is on his feet financially, he is seduced by power and greed culminating in the creation of the largest illegal alien smuggling ring in the U.S. from his base in San Diego from 1969 to 1972. Frustrated federal agents place Cass on the Ten Most Wanted list and his empire is eventually toppled by a quirk of fate. He served one year in prison and is now a respectable citizen. The book is co-authored by Dr. Manuel Vic Villalpando because of his many credentials and his doctoral dissertation on the subject of undocumented migrant workers. The epic is energized by the antics of Mario, Julio, and Will, Cass' childhood friends. Reader Reviews Stunning and riveting. I couldn't put it down until I read the last page. Gary Simpson, San Diego Dr. Villalpando's writing style is dynamic and captivating, and I hope that Mr. Archuleta has him write the sequel if one is planned. Dannez Hunter, Los Angeles Other than gasp from the shocking drama, I also laughed hysterically at the humorous repartee of the callous, but rather heroic and lovable smugglers. Frank Huttlinger, Orange County Villalpando's writing talent made Archuleta's horrific epic into a compelling read that not only entertained me, it also stirred my conscience on current immigration issues. Guadalupe Castaños, Yuma The Hispanic vernacular is right-on! It's the best I've read. Al Velasco, San Diego Gripping Panoramic A tour de force. Janet Keller, La Mesa Since my retirement as Director of the San Diego State University Office of Educational Opportunity/Ethnic Affairs, and being an avid reader, I have been indulging my love of literature at a voracious pace, and I just finished reading THE ILLICIT AMERICAN, one of the most compelling, riveting, stunning, and provocative nonfiction books I have ever read. The dramatic epic is so intriguing and shocking that, I thought I was reading an incredulous fictional story. It's a fabulous read. Gus Chavez This nonfictional saga is so beautifully detailed that, I felt as if I was watching a film instead of reading a book. It's a captivating page-turner that would make a great movie. Chris Feldman, La Jolla If someone is looking for a literary treat that evokes vivid imagery and breathless emotion, read THE ILLICIT AMERICAN. George Chandler, San Diego An illuminated portrait of human potential when man is pushed to the limits of desperation. THE ILLICIT AMERICAN is a work of stunning effect. Ed Sutton, San Diego
