Reviews & Products: These Are Our Lives (Book)
Abstract: This article presents information about the book "These Are Our Lives." Stories of whites and Negroes, of tenant farmers and of mill workers, of truck drivers and bootblacks, of people on relief, are included. There is a pre-ponderance of the unskilled group, with a few accounts of farm owners, store keepers and business men. The people portrayed are interesting. It is good for the general public to know about them; to have their point of view. Interestingly enough the contents of book may well reassure those who fear the rise of class feeling. The mill worker in the main has no antagonism toward the employer; the tenant farmer is not resentful toward the employer. The philosophy of life of these people is apparently worked out to their own satis- faction. In "These Are Our Lives" there is a collection of material which makes it possible for the one who runs to read, if he will. Admitting the weighting toward the unskilled groups and what is called the lower strata of society, the desired picture of this section of the society has been achieved.
