Description
"This is the story of seven thousand bikes that made an incredible journey and one young man from Oaxaca who arrived at the border with nothing, built a small empire, and then vanished. Taylor follows the trail of the border bikes through some of society's most powerful institutions, and, with the help of an unlikely source, he reconstructs the rise of one of Tijuana's most innovative coyotes. Touching on immigration and globalization, as well as the history of the US-Mexico border, The coyotes bicycle is at once an immersive investigation of an outragious occurrence and a true-crime, rags-to-riches story" --Jacket.
