A generation of Americans came of age boycotting grapes, swept up in a movement that vanquished California's most powerful industry and won dignity and contracts for impoverished farm workers. Four decades later, United Farm Workers leader Cesar Chavez's likeness graces postage stamps, and schools and streets are renamed in his honor.

But the real stories behind la causa-both its historic accomplishments and tragic disintegration-have remained buried. Pulitzer-winning journalist Miriam Pawel has changed our understanding of the UFW forever, crafting a powerful, poignant account of a movement and the people who made it. A tour de force of reporting and a spellbinding narrative, The Union of Their Dreams is a major contribution to the history of labor, civil rights, and immigration in modern America.

批評家のレビュー

A provocative glimpse into recent history, Pawel's exposé offers deep insight into the nature of mass movements.
In this sympathetic yet courageously honest narrative ... Miriam Pawel pays tribute to the dreams of a generation of young Americans dedicated to social justice and the dignity of labor.
This incisive and sensitive study makes a major contribution to our understanding of Cesar Chavez and the poor people's movement he led.
Miriam Pawel combines the skills of an historian and an investigative reporter to tell the story of the remarkable people upon whose dreams the farm worker movement was established, moved forward, and forever changed the nation.
The four-part report that forms the basis of Unfinished Business won Pawel a 2007 fellowship from the Alicia Patterson Foundation.
