520    "For more than a century, the border cities of Laredo, 
       Texas, and Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, have celebrated 
       George Washington's birthday with parades, pageants, and 
       other festivities. This project uses that long-standing 
       tradition as a lens to examine binational relations and 
       cross-border cooperation, especially during times of 
       crisis (e.g., the 1954 flood, currency devaluations, 
       present-day drug violence). It is a work of both 
       ethnography and archival research (as well as a few 
       uncatalogued documents the author received from private 
       collections), and it argues that the tradition of meeting 
       in the middle of the international bridge is more than a 
       goodwill gesture or an exercise in identity-consolidation.
       Peña maintains the GWB celebration is a repository of 
       bicultural memory, a negotiation platform, a 
       reconciliatory course of action, and even an efficacious 
       mode of border security"--|cProvided by publisher.
