Neng Lor, who fled Vietnam in the aftermath of the war and entered the U.S. as a legal immigrant, along with Miguel Delgado, an illegal immigrant who endured a harrowing journey across the Mexican border to the U.S., give students two very different firsthand accounts of the path to the U.S. and the challenges faced by recent and not-so-recent immigrants.   BOOKS Aleinikoff, T.
