Unguarded Border tells the stories of the 50,000 Americans who fled across the border to Canada in the 1960s and 1970s, a migrant experience that does not fit the usual paradigms. Historian Donald W. Maxwell explores how these Americans in exile forged cosmopolitan identities, permanently changing perceptions of military service, nation, and citizenship.
