Coxey's Army by Benjamin F Alexander
Despite running a gauntlet of ridicule, the marchers laid down a rough outline of what, some forty years later, emerged as the New Deal.
Coxey's Army has much to recommend itAlexander writes clearly and crisply, and he effectively conveys the crisis of the moment that produced the Coxey movement as well as the considerable colorfulness of the characters involved Ohio Valley History Alexander's distillation of the details of the march and its leading personalities together with a through examination of its long-term significance makes for good reading and a worthy addition to Johns Hopkins University Press's Witness to History book series. In addition to his highly readable text, Alexander thoughtfully includes a detailed map of the route of Coxey's march, a variety of pictures, detailed notes, and a list of suggestions for further reading.
