{"product_id":"hispanics-of-roosevelt-county-new-agapito-trujillo-9781626199156","title":"Hispanics of Roosevelt County, New Mexico:: A History","description":"In 1942, several Hispanic families left drought-devastated Encino and headed for the small, peanut-farming town of Portales in Roosevelt County, New Mexico. Among them was the Trujillo family, including five-year-old Agapito, who later became the county's first Hispanic law enforcement officer. The new arrivals did not feel welcome in Portales, which was almost entirely Anglo and a rumored \"sundown\" town. However, determined to put down roots and take advantage of economic opportunities, they eventually thrived. Agapito Trujillo tells the story of his family's migration to Roosevelt County alongside the struggles and triumphs of the Hispanic community with candor, grace and an obvious love for his heritage and neighbors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Agapito Trujillo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1626199159\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781626199156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/27\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 6.10w x 0.40d","brand":"Agapito Trujillo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939362144511,"sku":"9781626199156","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_17139bf3-8121-4cd5-a5f2-cfb62d3b93d4.jpg?v=1681441041","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hispanics-of-roosevelt-county-new-agapito-trujillo-9781626199156","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
