Occupied America, designed to accommodate the growing number of Mexican-American or Chicano History courses, is the most comprehensive text in this market.

The Fifth Edition of Occupied America has been revised to make the text more user-friendly and student-oriented, while maintaining its passionate voice.

• Well-rounded in coverage, this text offers extensive discussion of the role of race in forming the Mexican identity.

• Examines the question of gender and includes the role of gender throughout.

• Acunã's reputation as a radical and important voice of Chicano History has only increased since the first edition was published.

• Completely updated, this edition contains a significant amount of new material on Mexican American history.

• Material that explores the question of gender and gives a more complete view of Mexican American history has been added throughout the text.

• Up-to-date references and new sources throughout encourage students and professors to engage in further scholarship.

• New Chapter 1 has been expanded in its coverage and now constitutes two chapters with a new introduction.

• New introductory and concluding paragraphs provide the reader with a contextual framing for each chapter.
