Rezensionen
"A strong, solid, scholarly and yet completely readable and accessible book, one with immediate course adoptability."
--Richard Greenwald, St. Joseph'
"In addition to the usual players and locales, Pastorello's account offers descriptions of rural life as well as urban, business as well as labor, New York but also Chicago and Detroit among other centers of change at the time. It is a complexly conceived, well-written and engaging account of the Progressive Era."
--Annelise Orleck, Dartmouth College
