Summary
(From the publisher):
In the California apple country, 900 migratory workers rise up "in dubious battle" against the landowners. The group takes on a life of its own--stronger than its individual members and more frightening. Led by the doomed Jim Nolan, the strike springs from his tragic idealism, from the "courage never to submit or yield."
