In her incisive analysis of the shaping of California's
agricultural work force, Devra Weber shows how the cultural
background of Mexican and, later, Anglo-American workers, combined
with the structure of capitalist cotton production and New Deal
politics, forging a new form of labor relations. She pays
particular attention to Mexican field workers and their organized
struggles, including the famous strikes of 1933. Weber's perceptive
examination of the relationships between economic structure, human
agency, and the state, as well as her discussions of the crucial
role of women in both Mexican and Anglo working-class life, make
her book a valuable contribution to labor, agriculture, Chicano,
Mexican, and California history.
