"Jones offers few insights into her personal life but rather presents a picture of the famed agitator as she liked to be recognized: never a lady. Thus she heroically narrates her many adventures; especially poignant are her renditions of the 1903 march of the mill children and the great strikes in Colorado in 1903 and 1913-1914." *Buhle 165.
