Book excerpt: The village of Pedregal, located southwest of the meandering Rio Grande--no more than a microdot on the map--was purposefully bypassed by government projects and destined to become another hardscrabble village on the Mexican side of the Texas border. However, with the chance arrival of a parish priest and a female teacher, the inhabitants of Pedregal began a struggle against the barriers of ignorance, corruption, and neglect. In the process, the villagers discovered ordinary people can accomplish extraordinary things.
