In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief excerpt of the content:

Acknowledgments I would like to express my appreciation to Seymour Faber, Robert A. Hill, Selma James, Nettie Kravitz, Kathryne V.Lindberg, Scott McLemee, Aldon L. Nielsen, and Diane R. Voss for the help and support they provided for this book. Discussions with Alice and Staughton Lynd always helped to clarify ideas. I am indebted to Thomas J. Moeller, Po-chung Chuang, and Carrie Marchand for helping to tame the computer. It was also useful to be so close to the Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University. The staff people of the Reuther Library are both knowledgeable and helpful. The Library is a significant depository of material by and about C. L. R. James with three important collections, the Raya Dunayevskaya Collection, the James and Grace Lee Boggs Collection, and the Martin and Jessie Glaberman Collection . Seetha Srinivasan, Anne Stascavage, and the other folks at the University Press of Mississippi have been gracious, helpful, and professional in bringing this project to fruition.
