The author benefited from the help of the staff of several libraries and archives. The public libraries of Jersey City, Newark, North Bergen, and Passaic, New Jersey, were invaluable, as was the American Labor Museum/Botto House in Haledon, New Jersey. The High Point (North Carolina) Museum answered my questions about the Hillcrest Silk Company. I would also like to thank the staff of the Hoover Institution at Stanford University (particularly Dale Reed), the Prometheus Research Library, and Tamiment Library (New York University) for unending assistance. The Frank J. Guarini Library at New Jersey City University and the Carl Campbell Brigham Library in Lawrenceville, New Jersey, fulfilled my many interlibrary loan requests. Several scholars answered my disparate queries, including Marcella Bencivenni, Jamie H. Eves, David J. Goldberg, Gerald Meyer, and Kenyon Zimmer. I thank David Lee McMullen, perhaps the world’s leading expert on Albert Weisbord, for encouragement and assistance. Finally, the two anonymous readers at the Journal for the Study of Radicalism provided advice that helped hone this article into its present form. All errors, of course, remain the author’s own.
