Publisher's Note
A sweeping account of almost 400 years of competition, cooperation, and exclusion, "American Work" tells the epic, tragic story of how blacks were boycotted from significant social transformations in American history--from bound to free labor, from farm work to factory work, from a blue-collar to a white-collar economy.
A sweeping social history of almost four hundred years of competition, cooperation, and exclusion. "American Work" is the epic, tragic story of how black were excluded from significant social transformations in American history--from bound to free labor, from farm work to factory work, from a blue-collar to a white-collar economy. Meanwhile whites have characterized blacks simultaneously as lazy and as ruthless competitors for their jobs.

Industry reviews
"It is a pleasure to read an academic historian who writes creatively, with attention to texture and detail. Jones communicates her passion without sacrificing analytical sophistication."
Washington Post Book World - Anthony M. Platt 

"A useful and sobering work."
Halverson
