| 1. |  | A People's History of American Empire from Metropolitan Books Price: $11.56 Customer Review:  After reading that Howard Zinn does not think it is important to investigate 9/11, I will have nothing more to do with him. I don't care how renowned he is. If he doesn't think it's important to stop the false flag operations that have gone on for many, many decades that have thrust us into wars... |

| 3. |  | Students for a Democratic Society: A Graphic History from Hill and Wang Price: $14.96 Customer Review:  Growing up in the 60's was a fun time. We were going to change the world. But the world was not ready for change then. This book lets you relive those times. |

| 5. |  | Dangerous Woman: The Graphic Biography of Emma Goldman from New Press Price: $13.46 Customer Review: I bought this to introduce Emma to a young lady and, after looking in it, decided it would cancel any interest she might have had. Stick to Living My Life and imagine the visuals. |

| 7. |  | Wobblies!: A Graphic History of the Industrial Workers of the World from Verso Customer Review: The history uses many cartoonists, many cartoon styles. Text outside the cartoons is minimized. Footnotes are light. But compelling reading as an introduction to the Wobblies, from their beginnings to this 2005 publication. A lot of information despite (or maybe because of) the cartoon format. |

| 10. |  | Tender Comrades: A Backstory of the Hollywood Blacklist from St. Martin's Press Customer Review: It has been nearly 50 years since the Hollywood blacklist and they just can't get over what happened. The blacklist victims were hardly "tender comrades", they were dangerous people who sought to destroy the American way of life. The real enemy is not anti-communism, but communism itself. The KGB... |

| 13. |  | Taking Care of Business: Samuel Gompers, George Meany, Lane Kirkland, and the Tragedy of American Labor from Monthly Review Press Price: $18.00 Customer Review:  "Taking Care of Business" is a scathing attack on the shortsighted, bureaucratic, business union approach of the leadership of the AFL and AFL-CIO over the last one hundred years. None of the presidents of these labor federations from Gompers through Meany and Kirkland escape the author's... |

| 14. |  | Hide in Plain Sight: The Hollywood Blacklistees in Film and Television, 1950-2002 from Palgrave Macmillan Price: $17.95 Customer Review:  No need to repeat details from earlier reviews. The Buhle/Wagner work remains invaluable for filling out the historical record of the notorious Hollywood blacklist. The inquisition itself (1947-circa 1952) has been recounted in a number of worthy volumes; however, this is the only one I know that... |

| 16. |  | Radical Hollywood: The Untold Story Behind America's Favorite Movies from New Press Price: $19.95 Customer Review: Radical Hollywood, by Paul Buhle and David Wagner, is an exhaustively (if at times exhaustingly) comprehensive and, as far as I can tell, mostly accurate (if at times chronologically confusing) catalog of the many U.S. motion pictures created during the brief cinematic "Golden Age" from roughly the... |

| 18. |  | Encyclopedia of the American Left from Oxford University Press, USA Customer Review: This book is indispensable for any activist today. It is very helpful in the sense of going through the history of different figures and dynamics of the labor movement, women's struggle, gay rights struggle and the civil rights movement while also going into detail about their different publications... |

| 19. |  | Marxism in the United States: Remapping the History of the American Left (Rev) (Haymarket Series) from Verso Price: $49.95 Customer Review: There is something peculiarly ahistorical about this history of Marxism in the USA. Buhle's brand of Marxism operates in a historical vacuum where external events are rarely if ever glimpsed. Thus, Marxism's record in America becomes little more than a series of rather inexlicable failures. Names,... |
