"This volume, the first in a projected three-volume selection of Martís works, brings together, for the first tiem in English, his descriptive pieces about the Unites States and his anti-imperialist critiques. In so doing the book shows clearly the progression of Martís thouth: his initial belief in American ideals of freedom and democracy and his growing recognition of the failure of the late nineteenth-century United States to live up to those ideals..."

"A writer and man of action whose heroic efforts in the Cuban struggle for independence from Spain have made his a figure of reverence for all Cubans, José Martí spent the final 15 years of his life (1881-1895) in the U.S., earning a living by writing articles for many newspapers of Latin America as well as the New York Sun...These are exciting essays, fresh, thought-provoking and written with honesty and lack o bombast. They are long overdue, and pique one's interest for the two volumes yet to come. Philip S. Foner deserves great credit for his useful introduction, an the voluminous notes he scatters through the text." - Lehigh Valley Labor Herald.
"Anithing that Philip Foner writes is worth reading for its clarity, scholarship and honesty. His editing of the writings of José Martí is a fine accomplisment. Martí is a giant in the story of the Americans and almost unknown in the United Satates...His insight into the vulgarity, massive progress and the meaning of American life, here and abroad, is fantastic, incisive and often beautiful. His comments, his understanding, his knowledge, and powers of prophecy have rarely been matched..." Carleton Beals.
