About the book

"Drawing upon rich, untapped archival sources at the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Marco Prouty exposes the American Catholic hierarchy's internal, and often confidential, deliberations during the California farm labor crisis of the 1960s and 1970s. He traces the Church's gradual transition from reluctant mediator to outright supporter of Chavez, providing an intimate view of the Church's decision-making process and Chavez's steadfast struggle to win rights for farmworkers."--BOOK JACKET.
