[An] exceptionally interesting and intimate oral history . . . Against a background of motels and allnight cafs and strikes, the high relief in which the characters stand out is truly fascinating. Jacques Levys biography of Chavez has unforgettable descriptive passages and fine photographs. The NationMexicanAmerican civil rights and labor activist Cesar Chavez (19271993), comes to life in this vivid portrait of the charismatic and influential fighter who boycotted supermarkets and took on corporations, the government, and the powerful Teamsters Union. Jacques E. Levy gained unprecedented access to Chavez and the United Farm Workers Union in writing this account of one of the most successful labor movements in history which can also serve as a guidebook for social and political change.[The] definitive work. The books major contribution lies in its portrait of the man himselfdeeply religious in an almost mystical fashion; a dedicated battler, but not a dedicated hater; a leader who not only will not ask, but will not allow his followers to make the sacrifices he has made.
