- "A masterful, erudite piece of scholarship, taking in a vast range of material. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first work to discuss the entire Mexican labor force and its struggles in a variety of economic sectors and a variety of regions of the United States. Vargas's book serves as model for working class history."--Linda Gordon, New York University
