Reviews

Daniel's book is both a pleasure to read and fills in an important gap in the historiography of textile workers. It provides the first comprehensive history of the TWUA. While not a substitute for community studies, anyone undertaking a study of textile workers in the future will need to refer to this volume in order to gain an appreciation of how the union's internal politics effected its external relations. Lawrence Richards, University of Virginia. EH.Net, June 2002


Daniel is masterful in interpreting efforts to unionize textile workers in the 20th century. . . . The book is strongest in delineating the divisions within national efforts. . . . Recommended for upper-division undergraduate through faculty collections. -Choice, January 2002, Vol. 39, No. 5
