Why read it?
1 author picked Against the Wall as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Jenn Buddâs account of her life as a Border Patrol agent is powerful because it comes from a place of self-reflection and growth.

This book inspired me because she sees the racism and violence that are endemic to the Border Patrol and then dedicates her life to changing it.Â
From Reece's list on US Border Patrol.
