As far back as Cristina Henríquez can remember, there has always been the Panama Canal.
She visited it every summer on family trips.
The questions, however, didn’t occur to her until she was older: Whose lives, and deaths, lay behind a project so massive it redefined countries and redrew the world’s map?
“I grew up going to the canal, but I didn’t know what I was seeing,” Henríquez said.
And, “Free lodging and medical care.” “Work in paradise!”
