The Illegal From Holland

How does a carefree, four-day honeymoon trip from California to New Mexico turn into a trap, resulting in a jail sentence in El Paso and a deportation to Holland? The Illegal from Holland tells how a Dutch citizen and her American husband travel halfway around the world to overturn her deportation. Along the way, they learn about the amazing inefficiency of the U.S. Immigration Department and the ominous danger of the blind hostility and prejudices of many Americans towards illegal immigrants today.
