"Palmer's superb micro-history of the Minneapolis General Strike provides readers with an unprecedented view of a Depression-era class struggle from the inside out. Revolutionary Teamsters offers invaluable 'dancing lessons' -- still relevant today -- for labour radicals and protest organizers." --Mike Davis, author of Ecology of Fear, Planet of Slums , and Buda's Wagon "A stirring study worthy of the epic struggles it describes. Palmer's account situates the creativity, seriousness, and heroism of revolutionaries and rank-and-filers in an historical moment while trusting that they speak to our moment as well." --David R. Roediger, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and co-author of The Production of Difference "Revolutionary Teamsters . is not only a fresh look at a critical set of historical events in the history of both the left and the labor movement, but also an invitation to engage in a creative reconsideration of the relationship between the past and the present. Like any really good historian, Palmer reveals himself to be more interested in the future than in the past.

" --Peter Rachleff, Macalester College, St. Paul, Minnesota "An informative and well-researched book,Revolutionary Teamsters: The Minneapolis Teamsters Strike of 1934, by Bryan D Palmer, deserves to be read widely by anyone interested in the contemporary labour movement - in North America or anywhere else." --Richard Allday, Counterfire.
