Book Reviews of This Land Is Their Land: Reports from a Divided Nation

Book Review: Truth and astute observation, laced with sarcasm and wit
Summary: 5 Stars

I consider this one of Ehrenreich's masterpieces. Having read some of her other books, I am by now familiar with her style of delivery and her ability to convey her experience and observations in readily "digestible" form.

This short book is not short on information, warnings, observations, and truth. ON the one hand I found it highly informative -- on the other hand, I was struck by the disparity between "$$$$ Them $$$$" and "Us ($?)" -- BUT perhaps the tide is turning. And with that in mind, I hope that Ms. Ehrenreich takes a long hard look at what is going on in the economic sector right now (The Financial Meltdown - October 2008), and share her insights with us in another timely publication.
