Grade 7 Up This is a serviceable biography of noted labor leader Mary Harris, who was active from the 1880s until her death in 1930. Gay covers the basics of her life and includes a time line and lengthy bibliography. Judith Pinkerton Josephson's Mother Jones (Lerner, 1997) is similar in scope, but does a better job of providing background information and delineating Jones's character. Photos and reproductions appear throughout. Ann W. Moore, Schenectady County Public Library, NY Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
