Opis

When the depression of the 1890s prompted unemployed workers from Los Angeles to join a nationwide march on Washington, 'Coxey's Army' marked the birth of radicalism in that city. This book traces the subsequent struggle between the radical left and L.A.'s power structure, and tells how both sides shaped the city's character.
