Review Quotes:

"Trotter has written a valuable, provocative book that opens new areas for certain--and heated--debate."--Arnold R. Hirsch, Journal of American Ethnic History

"Trotter blazed new ground, courageously argued his thesis despite the skeptical eyes of non-Marxists, seamlessly connected local, urban, black, and labor history, and skillfully recounted the ways that black Milwaukeeans forged their own lives. . . . The second edition is well worth reading."--H-Urban

"Thanks to its original methodology, outstanding research and meticulous attention to detail Black Milwaukee has become a seminal work in labour history."--Left History

"This highly readable book is a classic, and rightly so, in the interconnected areas of labor, black, and urban history."--Labor Studies Journal
