Imposing Decency: The Politics of Sexuality and Race in Puerto Rico, 1870–1920 (American Encounters/Global Interactions)
&ldquo;Placing working people&mdash;their values, interests, and struggles&mdash;at the center of  history, Findlay elucidates the intersections of the public and the private, of moralizing discourses, class relations, and political visions and provides new perspectives on the political meanings of divorce, prostitution, and respectability in Puerto Rico. An imaginative, pathbreaking book.&rdquo;&mdash;Catherine Le Grand, McGill University
