RaveThe Corpus Christi Caller-TimesCorchado delivers a touching and emotional semi-autobiographical reflection of what it means to be Mexican or Mexican American in the United States. To understand his diaspora—the mingling of ethos that rests within his mind and soul—one must understand that his story is one of survival, of striving to be the best he can be and of finding a home in this beloved land that often refutes the worthiness of his people and culture ... However, this is much more than a personal story. He mixes politics and journalism in a seamless manner and proves the two are as inter-related as \'café and pan dulce\' ... The Mexican culture is and always be part of the fabric of America. It is part of what \'Makes America Great,\' as Corchado’s insightful book suggests.
