The black & white boards are in near fine condition (slight bumping of spine). The dust jacket is in near fine condition. 9 ĵ x 7 ĵ, 333 pages, 28 ounces XX [From the dust jacket flaps] In the dirt fields of California and Arizona, in the lush vineyards of the Napa Valley, in the borderlands between the U.S. and Mexico, and in supermarkets throughout America and the world, Cesar Chavez wrought monumental changes that will continue to reverberate for years to come. Chavez's life and work transformed American society and his name has become synonymous with the struggle of American migrant farmworkers for dignity and justice through the United Farm Workers union. THE FIGHT IN THE FIELDS tells the dramatic story of Chavez and the UFW in words and in an extraordinary collection of photographs, many of which have not been previously published. Like Gandhi and King, Cesar Chavez was a brilliant student of the human heart, a leader who never compromised his principles, a teacher to the world. Born to a farming family in Arizona who lost their land in the Depression, Chavez dedicated his life to the struggles of migrant farmworkers, ultimately inspiring them to challenge the giant agribusinesses of the West. Yet he was also a complex man whose decisions sometimes frustrated coworkers, and in the decade before his death in 1993 the UFW was sometimes divided over its mission. To address the union's battles within and without, Susan Ferriss and Ricardo Sandoval have brought to THE FIGHT IN THE FIELDS the voices of the men and women who were there, those who loved Chavez and those who opposed him. In addition, essays, letters, poems, and archival material, all filled with personal observations about migrant life and passionate feeling for Chavez, add unusual depth to this biography. These include an elegy from Rudolfo Anaya, an excerpt from Peter Matthiessen's moving eulogy, and Gary Soto's beautiful foreword. At once intimate portrait and social history, THE FIGHT IN THE FIELDS not only follows Chavez's career but offers a convincing and moving argument for the continuing relevance of his legacy. XX SUSAN FERRISS is an award-winning immigration and Latino affairs reporter for the San Francisco Examiner. She also produced and directed The Golden Cage (1989), an acclaimed documentary on Mexican and Chicano farmworkers that Included interviews with Chavez. RICARDO SANDOVAL is the Mexico City correspondent for the San Jose Mercury News. He has covered farm labor and immigration for the Stockton Record, the Los Angeles Herald Examiner, and other newspapers.

First Edition
Hardcover. Soto, Gary (illustrator). xvi, 330 p. Illustrations. Map. Notes. Index. Foreword by Gary Soto. The companion volume to a 1997 PBS documentary, and a prime example of its genre. With veteran journalists Susan Ferriss ("San Francisco Examiner") and Ricardo Sandoval ("San Jose Mercury News") providing an exposition of the historical narrative, this account is filled out with first-person anecdotes and eyewitness accounts, news clips, photographs, and even letters home from migrant workers in a manner that successfully evokes the spirit, texture, and feel of the political and social context. The resulting pastiche provides a general-interest overview of the struggle to organize the nation's agricultural workers from the founding of the United Farm Workers in 1962 through Chavez's death in 1993. Good in good dust jacket. Price clipped. Paperclip impression on a couple of pages. DJ has slight wear and soiling. Hinges somewhat sprung. First edition. Stated. First printing [stated].
