Kenneth E. Miller is Professor Emeritus of Political Science at Rutgers University.
“Simply by virtue of Frederic C. Howe’s ubiquity, his life story is
a remarkable and valuable lens through which to view the making and
unmaking of Progressive thought and activism. Kenneth Miller takes
the reader inside the nuts and bolts of reform activism and
delivers one of the best accounts we have of exactly how reformers
such as Howe went about their business.”—Robert
Westbrook,University of Rochester
“Kenneth E. Miller’s From Progressive to New Dealer is an
indispensable analysis of a significant progressive intellectual
reformer whose first book, The City: The Hope of Democracy, was
published more than a century ago in 1905. . . . Readers interested
in the varieties of progressive reform thought from 1900 to Howe’s
death in 1940 will find this a compelling biography.”—Frank
Annunziata Journal of American History
