PositiveThe New York Times Book Review... a must-read for anyone organizing a union drive across cultural or racial lines, but even readers who have never thought about labor issues before will find themselves sucked into the drama ... Soni does a good job of keeping the focus on the workers. He reveals just enough of himself to help us understand how he managed to persuade the men to trust him ... The one quibble I have with “The Great Escape” is its failure to grapple with the thorniest question at the center of this saga: Should these Indian workers have been brought to the United States in the first place?
