description: In the 1970s, textile workers joined forces with a small band of grassroots activists and organizers and challenged southern cotton textile manufacturers. This chronicle of the rise and ultimately the failure of the Brown Lung Association details the interaction of the major participants. Relegation of scholarly apparatus to the notes keeps the narration readable. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
