Editorial Reviews

Review

"Correcting other scholars here, exploding hoary legends there, Dubofsky and Van Tine bring to bear the powerful artillery of disinterested scholarship to clear away the debris left behind by mythmakers... Retains the original edition's perspective and judgements, much of its language, and all of its judiciousness and intelligence." -- Labor/Le Travail --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
