"Solidarity Forever: An Oral History of the IWW is a great book. I wish it were used in American history courses in every high school and college in the USA. The average American doesn't know much about his or her own history. They figure that history is a record of missed opportunities and let it go at that. But the story of the Wobblies has a lot to teach us and inspire us as well. I find the book inspiring."-Pete Seeger
"In telling the story of one of America's earliest and most inspiring protest movements, Solidarity Forever rings with the simple eloquence of working men and women who faced insurmountable economic and political odds with little more than courage in their hearts and a song on their lips. Their story gives new hope to a labor movement struggling against challenges that sometimes appear equally insurmountable today."-William W. Winpisinger, former president, International Association of Machinists
"Astute scholarship undergirds a graceful and exciting presentation... It's great to have a new work to keep up the interest in the IWW so that still another generation of readers can be inspired and hopefully moved to action."-Joyce Kornbluh, Author, Rebel Voices-An IWW Anthology
