Review:
"Harriet Beecher Stowe's "Uncle Tom's Cabin, " Frank Norris's "The Octopus" and John Steinbeck's "The Grapes of Wrath" are still readable and powerful enough to move the reader, but most other examples of American protest fiction must be soldiered through. To the small company of exceptions should be added "The Harbor" itself, by Ernest Poole, which Penguin Classics has rescued from oblivion." -- Dennis Drabelle, "Washington Post Book World"
