Forgive my curiousness, but why is he giving away his books?:D

He's moving to another state to teach, so he's getting rid of all his books to empty his office.

At least I'll get to take one more class with him before he leaves (Modern Political Theory, which will cover Marx).

Labor Wars is an excellent account of labor history, I just bought the republished version from Haymarket Books and we are doing a study group on it.
