LOFTIS ANNE
Witnesses To The Struggle: Imaging The 1930s California Labor Movement
University of Nevada Press Reno: 2014. Softcover. Brand new book. In this groundbreaking interdisciplinary study Loftis examines the artists who put a human face on the farmworkers' plight in California during the Great Depression focusing on writer John Steinbeck photographer Dorothea Lange sociologist and author Paul Taylor and journalist Carey McWilliams. Loftis probes the interplay between journalism and art in the 1930s when both academics and artists felt an urgent need to be relevant in the face of enormous misery. The power of their work grew out of their personal involvement in both the labor struggles and the hardships endured by workers and their families. Steinbeck Lange and the other artists and intellectuals in their circles created the public images of their times. Works such as The Grapes of Wrath or Lange's Migrant Mother actually helped mold public opinion and form government policies. Even today these works remain icons in our shared perception of that era. Loftis helps us understand why this art still seems the truest representation of those desperate times three-quarters of a century later. Anne Loftis is a journalist and researcher and the coauthor of The Great Betrayal: The Evacuation of the Japanese-Americans During World War II and A Long Time Coming: The Struggle to Unionize America's Farm Workers and author of California--Where the Twain Did Meet. She lives in Palo Alto California. "A wonderful book beautifully written and a must read for labor ethnic economic Western and social/cultural historians and for those who treasure Americana."

Wild Meat and the Bully Burgers.
New York NY Harcourt Brace Jovanovich HBJ: Harvest American Writing 1997. Paperback First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use; binding square and secure; text clean. Just a hint of wear to extremities; pages ever-so-slightly tanned. Very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder. NOT a Book-Club Edition. NOT an Ex-Library copy. Slightly Oblong 12mo. 277pp. Trade Paperback. In her debut novel the author presents the history of a Japanese American family living in Hawaii in the 1970s. The narrator Lovey Nariyoshi tells her story of growing up in a white "haole" culture that keeps her family segregated. "No japs on TV" observes Lovey "except Mrs. Livingston and Kay-to." This engrossing novel is strongly woven together with chapters that swing from the heartfelt childhood memories of Lovey's father Hubert to the fiendish behavior of her neighbors. Hawaiian Creole is dispersed effectively with English further corroborating the fervent characters and their stories. By focusing decisively on her own distinct culture the author successfully uncovers the damaging restrictions of American culture at large. This commanding novel should delight and haunt every reader. �A rare book - exuberant fresh-voiced rich crazy stabbing comic and as true-toned as a crystal glass tapped with a knife� E. Annie Proulx. Unconditionally recommended. Harcourt Brace Jovanovich [HBJ]: Harvest American Writing, paperback
