Reviews
"It is indeed inspiring, in the face of all the misguided praise of 'the market, ' to be reminded by John Curl's new book of the noble history of cooperative work in the United States." --Howard Zinn, on previous edition
"New generations of readers will find this a fascinating account, and aging co-opers like myself will understand better what we did, what we tried to do, where we succeeded, and where we failed. Get this book and read it." --Paul Buhle, coeditor, Encyclopedia of the American Left
"Written with integrity, intelligence, passion, and commitment, For All the People draws on deep experience and, if we read it well, provides a road map to the future." --Malcolm Margolin, author, The Ohlone Way
"The self-destroying machine of industrial consumer capitalism lurches toward its collapse, and those who come after will need the information and inspiration in this marvelously detailed book." --Ernest Callenbach, author, Ecotopia and Ecotopia Emerging
