“Varieties of Spanish in the United States” by John M. Lipski
“Thirty-three million people in the United States speak some variety of Spanish, making it the second most used language in the country. “Some of these people are recent immigrants from many different countries who have brought with them the linguistic traits of their homelands, while others come from families who have lived in this country for hundreds of years.”
