Erstausgabe
Hardcover. First edition. 31.5 x 23.5 cm. Quarto. 188pp. 141 color and black and white photographs. Grey cloth in dust jacket. Photography by Milton Rogovin, Tony Maine, Ron Kelley, the essayists, and Yemeni workers. First edition with no additional printings noted. Foxing to the top foredge as well as to the inside of the top of the jacket. Some bowing to the boards. From the jacket flap: "Heard at the Yemeni labor camp in Delano, California: "What did the American astronauts find when the first landed on the moon?" "Yemenis, looking for work." High wages and easy work - these are the myths that lure Yemeni workers abroad, and especially to the United States, which has seen generations of migrant laborers. But the realities of migrant labor are something else. In Sojourners and Settlers, leading scholars of history, anthropology, folklore, sociology, and political science have joined with photographers and critics to present an interdisciplinary look at the phenomenon of labor migration. They reveal drastically changing rural and urban environments in Yemen, and in the United States, strenuous work weeks, bleak farm work camp conditions, plant shut downs, culture shock, and cautious assimilation. Under Friedlander's editorship, these reports of the ordinary events of Yemeni workers' lives become studies in courage, persistence, and dignity." Very Good in Very Good dust jacket.
