Charles E. Woodhouse

Immigrant Communities & Ethnic Minorities in the United States & Canada, No. 80


Though this edition represents its first publication as a book, Paul Walter’s pioneering study has served as an authoritative reference for the study of Chicano culture in New Mexico since 1938, when it was submitted as a doctoral dissertation to Stanford University.

Regarded as something of a renegade toward the end of his career, Dr. Walter, who died in 1973, stood opposed to the growing specialization of the discipline of anthropology, and it was only in the mid-1960s, as the Chicano movement gained steam, that this text and its author came to be appreciated once again.
