Coxey's Army: Popular Protest in the Gilded Age
Benjamin F. Alexander's Coxey's Army: Popular Protest in the Gilded Age is a historical account of Jacob Coxey's 1894 march on Washington, D.C. The book examines the socio-economic context of the Gilded Age, highlighting industrialization's impact on labor and inequality. Coxey's "Good Roads" plan, advocating for government-funded public works to alleviate unemployment, is analyzed within the broader context of Populist and producerist movements. The narrative follows Coxey's army's journey, detailing its organization, participants, and reception, and concludes by assessing the movement's lasting impact on American politics and social welfare debates.
