Free Justice
Sara Mayeux's meticulously researched study of the origin and growth of public defenders in the United States has appeared at a propitious moment. As police behavior, unequal justice, and the carceral state roil local, state, and national politics, Mayeux shows why it is difficult to create equal justice under the law. Her education in both law and history reinforces her ability to elucidate the history of efforts to provide indigent criminal def…

Charles W. Romney. Rights Delayed
The title of Charles W. Romney’s Rights Delayed: The American State and the Defeat of Progressive Unions, 1935–1950 promises far more than the book delivers. Rather than a study of how the “American State” defeated progressive unions, it examines only one putative progressive union, the Food, Tobacco, Agricultural, and Allied Workers (FTA; originally the United Cannery, Agricultural, Packing, and Allied Workers of America [UCAPAWA]), which was de…
Progressive Inequality
Progressive Inequality: Rich and Poor in New York, 1890-1920, by David Huyssen. Cambridge, Harvard University Press, 2014. 378 pp. $39.95 US (cloth). Given the title chosen by David Huyssen and the debates sparked by Thomas Piketty's Capital in the Twenty-First Century (Cambridge, 2014), I expected the book under review to delineate the measureable inequalities that separated rich and poor in early twentieth-century New York City. Instead Huyssen…
Mitchell Newton-Matza. Intelligent and Honest Radicals
The policies and practices of the Chicago Federation of Labor (CFL) and its formidable leader, John Fitzpatrick, have been the subject of several previous scholarly studies. Almost 50 years ago, John H. Keiser wrote his dissertation at Northwestern University on John Fitzpatrick and progressive unionism. Not long after, James Weinstein's book on the decline of socialism in the United States and his articles on the failure of third-party progressi…

Daniel Webster and the Whig Theory of Economic Growth
ECONOMIC historians have recently been pushing America's take-off into sustained economic growth back into the era preceding the post-Civil War generation of Radical Republicans and Robber Barons. Committed to the impersonality of their discipline, however, they have, for the most part, understated the human and political factors operative in America's rise to industrial maturity.' Thus the time appears ripe to reexamine antebellum (1820-1850) po…
