Book Synopsis
Describes the formation of a masculine ideology in the decades prior to the war, and shows how it thrived - on the job, and through union politics. This title provides a context for our ideas of postwar masculinity and whiteness and finally returns the men of the home front to our reckoning of the Greatest Generation and the New Deal era.

Trade Review
"Matthew L. Basso's evidence and interpretations regarding the significance of masculinity to the values, actions, and concerns of working-class civilian men in Montana's copper industry substantially revise our understandings of the middle decades of the twentieth century." (Karen Anderson, author of Wartime Women)"
