Alden's first book, The Closing of the American Border: Terrorism, Immigration, and Security since 9/11 (2008) was a finalist for the Lukas Book Prize." The judges wrote, "Exceptional journalism is required to take immigration — a neglected sideshow in the nation's globe-girding response to the September 11 attacks — and make the topic as evocative of America's misplaced values as the Iraq War and the tolerance for torture." [6] Alden returned the next year, in 2010, as a judge for the prize. [7] Alden's other books include U.S. Immigration Policy (2009), written with Jeb Bush and Thomas F.
