Civic passions : seven who launched progressive America (and what they teach us)
Cecelia Tichi (Author)
"Civic Passions is a collection of minibiographies, and a user's manual on how a generation of social reformers can turn peril into progress with fresh, workable ideas. Together, these narratives of advocacy provide a precedent of progressive action and show how citizen-activists can engage the problems of the age in imaginative ways. While offering useful models to encourage the nation in a newly progressive direction, Civic passions reminds us that one determined individual can make a difference"--Book jacket
