* ''Antonio's Gun and Delfino's Dream: True Tales of Mexican Migration'' (University of New Mexico Press, 2007), is a collection of non-fiction stories about Mexican immigrants, and their lives on both sides of the border, based on his reporting in Mexico. Stories include the Henry Ford of Velvet Painting in El Paso/Juarez; how a rich and vital opera scene emerged in the babbling border city of Tijuana; the season of a high school soccer team in [[Garden City, Kansas]]; and finally, how drug-trafficking [[Mennonites]] in [[Chihuahua (state)|Chihuahua]] ran [[Quinones]] out of Mexico. Threading through the book are the stories of a young construction worker named Delfino Juarez, who first hitched his future to Mexico City then, when it failed him, he moved north to Los Angeles.<ref>{{cite news|last=Arellano|first=Gustavo|title=The Road Oft Traveled|url=http://articles.latimes.com/2007/may/13/books/bk-arellano13|work=The Los Angeles Times|accessdate=May 23, 2013|date=May 13, 2007}}</ref>
