Summary

It's the early days of the American Civil War, and Reuben Cole is serving as a scout in the Union Army.
 
Posted to a remote fort, the Army of the Potomac, under General McClellan, is attempting an ambitious assault on confederate positions, in the hopes of turning their flank and bringing the war to a swift end. Cole is assigned to track down a ruthless bunch of raiders, hell-bent on killing as many of the Northern Blues as they can.
 
But when personal tragedy strikes, Cole will need to take his first steps on the path that will transform him into the hardened, uncompromising man he is to become, and to learn the lessons that will keep him alive through the hardships that await.

In 1934, a young José Revueltas traveled to Tamaulipas to support the cotton workers' strike in Estación Camarón, which became the basis of his landmark novel Human Mourning. In her own groundbreaking novel, Autobiography of Cotton, Cristina Rivera Garza recounts her grandparents' journey from mining towns to those same cotton fields as it intersects with Revueltas's life in a vivid and evocative history of cotton cultivation along the Mexico-United States border.Through archival research and personal narrative, Rivera Garza chronicles the way cotton transformed the borderlands by reconstructing the cotton workers' strike and reveals how cycles of deprivation and ecocide persist across generations. Deeply personal and politically acute, Rivera Garza crafts a new kind of border novel that tells how a brittle land radically altered her grandparents' lives and the territories they helped develop. An intimate fictionalization, Autobiography of Cotton reveals a rich social history of agricultural colonization, labor activism, environmental degradation, and cross-border migration.
