REVIEWS
“A welcome contribution at a critical time.” –New York Post
“Forcefully argued and informative… both correct and important” –Washington Post Bookworld (A “Best Nonfiction of 2006″ Selection)
“Impressive…. never falls victim to the anvil-like lack of subtlety that characterizes much of the public discourse on the subject” –Miami Herald
“A wonderfully even-handed piece of scholarship, and a smoothly written work. Wucker cleanly balances anecdote and statistics to compare the mythology of immigration to reality. As an immigrant who has refused the melting pot, I found it refreshing to find a writer who understands how important it is, if you love this country, to keep it open and inclusive of others.”
– Shauna Singh Baldwin, award-winning author of What the Body Remembers, English Lessons and Other Stories, and The Tiger Claw
LOCKOUT has been cited as evidence in Congressional testimony
