"Through a variety of primary sources -- including speeches, poems, magazine articles, and book excerpts -- this collection illustrates the origins, ambitions, and political legacy of the American Progressivism movement (1886-1924). A general introduction offers a history of the movement and a brief discussion of recent historiographical debates; headnotes introduce each selection and provide historical and political context."--Back cover.
