This anthology presents the work of scholars who are forging a new brand of social history--one that reflects the diversity of California's labor force by pa…
Life in the Jungle and Getting Work in the City of Brotherly Love
The continuing intractability of America's urban problems has made urban history one of the most exciting branches of the new social history. Both of these books draw on the rich historiographic legacy created by the new urban history and directly and indirectly address issues of concern to policymakers.

Company Town: Potlatch, Idaho, and the Potlatch Lumber Company by Keith C. Petersen
TECHNOLOGY AND CULTURE Book Reviews 161 introduced. Cooper concludes with a review of the commonalities of the situation of men and women workers in the period before 1920.

Workers and Dissent in the Redwood Empire focuses attention on a place that needed more study, the redwood forest belt of far northern California. It excavates a period either hidden…
