Description

Book Synopsis
Offers an examination of working-class activism, broadly defined as that of farmers' organisations, labour unions, and political movements, in Arkansas during the Gilded Age. On one level, Hild argues for the significance of this activism in its own time. He also argues that the significance of these movements lasted beyond their own time.

Trade Review
Not only a unique contribution to Arkansas history but also, I think, a significant addition to what we know of protest movements nationally during the late nineteenth century.""- Carl H. Moneyhon, Professor of History, University of Arkansas–Little Rock; author of Arkansas and the New South, 1874–1929
