By Mario A. Trujillo Bolio

Subjects: Textile workers, Textile industry, History, Labor movement

Description: "First major study to examine not only the nature of the working class in the Valley of Mexico, but also how workers lived. Concentrates on their organizations and also provides insights on popular culture. Confirms Haber's thesis that textile production proceeded despite political instability. Little discussion of the topic within an evolutionary historical context"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
