I read this book as an undergrad and my lasting impression is that it went on forever. As a resource on poverty and the welfare system, this book can't be beat. It's worth the time but is so chock full of information that it warrants more than one glance. ( )

Though politically committed, it seems impressive in its historical scope. ( )
