Book Review

Southern Struggles: The Southern Labor Movement and the Civil Rights Struggle. By John A. Salmond. (Gainesville: University Press of Florida, 2004. xiv, 212 pp. $55.00, ISBN 0-8130-2703-9.)

In a prolific career spanning forty years, John A. Salmond has devoted himself to understanding two prominent but seemingly disparate elements in the history of the twentieth-century South: the evolution and triumph of the black freedom struggle and the largely unsuccessful but no less dramatic struggles of white textile workers against paternalism and harsh exploitation. In this concise, sharply focused comparative essay, Salmond attempts to bring his two long-term intellectual projects together, to render explicit the "grim continuity between the drive of white textile workers for economic justice and that of black southerners for racial equality" (p. 5).
