MARTIN DUBERMAN is Distinguished Professor of History at the City University of New York and the author of some twenty books.
“[A] deeply moving tale that works as both love story and political
statement.” –Jay Freeman, Booklist
“Haymarket is a spirited fictional reconstruction of the
police-instigated Haymarket riot in Chicago in 1886. . . . [W]e
should be grateful to Duberman for spotlighting a neglected chapter
in the struggle for workplace rights and human dignity.” –Peter
Franck, Washington Post
“This book brings to life a haunting episode in the ever moving
history of American labor. I read it with pleasure and profit.”
–Vivian Gornick, author of Fierce Attachments
“Haymarket reveals Martin Duberman's unique combination fo
talents as historian and writer of imaginative literature. Through
the story of Albert and Lucy Parsons, he brings to life the social
texture and gross inequalities of Reconstruction Texas and Gilded
Age Chicago, and strikingly illuminates the radicalism that helped
to shape modern America.” –Eric Foner, DeWitt Clinton Professor of
History, Columbia University
“Easy to read and bursting with history.” –Seattle Times
