Chicana and Chicano Art
"This is the first book solely dedicated to the history, development, and present-day flowering of Chicana and Chicano visual arts.

McCaughan places the three movements within their own local histories, cultures, and conditions, but also links them to the 1968 rebellions that were going on across the world.
