No Borders: A Journalist's Search for Home

From his childhood days in Mexico, to his experience of censorship in government–owned Mexican media companies, his student years in LA, and his early beginnings as a journalist in the USA, Ramos gives us a personal and touching account of his life.

With a series of intimate portraits of the leading political figures he has interviewed over the years (Castro, George W. Bush, Chavez, Clinton) and the places he has been, he reflects on world events and how they have changed, not only humanity, but his own life.

No Borders blends personal memoir, political commentary and greatest-hits selections from Ramos s war coverage — El Salvador, Persian Gulf, Kosovo — and his interviews with Latin American leaders like the Colombian president, Ernesto Samper, Venezuela s Hugo Chávez and Nicaragua s Daniel Ortega. The most successful portions of the book, well translated from the Spanish by Patricia J. Duncan, are the personal narrative and reportorial reminiscences. — Shannon Brady Marin
