@FINK\Workingmen's Democracy@"Concentrating on the historic failure of the American working class to build an effective anti-capitalist political party, observers on the left have tended to judge the American labor movement harshly in comparison to its European counterparts. Fink's important book reminds us that this has not always been so." -- In These Times.
