A Radical History
Johanna Fernández
“Fernández has not only produced the defini-
tive history of the Young Lords; she also has
single-handedly shifted our understanding of
the post-1968 political landscape. This book
moves the Young Lords from the margins of
the New Left and Puerto Rican nationalism to
the very epicenter of global struggles against
racism, imperialism, and patriarchy and for
national self-determination, medical justice,
reproductive rights, and socialism. A work as
monumental and expansive as the Young
Lords’ vision of revolution.”

The Nation of Islam, the Black
Freedom Movement, and
the Carceral State
Garrett Felber
“Richly researched and told with elegance
and sophistication, this stunning book is the
definitive account of the Nation of Islam's
political activism. Felber provides a revela-
tory look at the urgency and far-reaching
influence of this controversial, pivotal Black
nationalist organization.”

MANDULEY
The Life and Legacy of a Cuban
Revolutionary
Tiffany A. Sippial
“Sippial opens a window onto the conscious-
ness of Celia Sánchez Manduley, possibly
the Cuban Revolution's staunchest loyalist
and one of Fidel Castro's primary confi-
dantes. That Sippial is one of very few to
ever gain access to the state's official
historical archive since Sánchez inaugurated
it in 1964 alone makes this book mandatory
reading for anyone interested in learning
how revolutionary Cuba became Commu-
nist Cuba in less than two decades.”
—Lillian Guerra, author of Visions of Power

The Making of a Black Inventor and
Entrepreneur
Jill D. Snider
“This is one of the best black inventor
biographies I have read in quite some time.
Snider deftly unearths the life of Lucean
Arthur Headen from sources that can be
difficult to find—something that makes
writing about African American people of
this era challenging. An impressive work of
history and biography.”

The Civil War’s Battles for Home,
Freedom, and Nation
Thavolia Glymph
“Glymph helps us draw together and make
sense of a multitude of female experiences in
wartime. By putting the African American
experience at the center of her book, she also
shifts our perspective on what it means to
think about ‘the women's Civil War.’”

A Civil Rights Memorial
Jessica Ingram
“Ingram's book is both reflexive and
reflective, guiding us through a difficult
history and creatively telling these hidden
histories with a sensitivity to a highly
trafficked past. Her pioneering approach
as a photographer and archivist gives us a
new way of looking at the South and the
civil rights movement from someone who
grew up in the South.”

THE LAYWOMAN PROJECT
Remaking Catholic Womanhood in
the Vatican Ii Era
Mary J. Henold
“This beautifully written book tells a new
story about how Catholic laywomen
reinvented themselves—or not—in light
of both internal religious pressures and
external sociocultural changes of the latter
half of the twentieth century. It shines a
spotlight on the one segment of the
Catholic population, more than half of
its membership, that as yet has received
less attention than bishops, clergy, and
prominent laymen.”
—Paula M. Kane, University of Pittsburgh
284 pages $29.95 paperFOOD FIGHTS
How History Matters to
Contemporary Food Debates
Edited by Charles C. Ludington
and Matthew Morse Booker
“This book lives up to its title —a collection
of essays that not only shows divergent
subjects and recommendations but also
invites this disagreement, showcasing
controversies in the contemporary world
of food and the light that history sheds
on these debates.”
—Paul Freedman, Yale University
