"...Here are some of the passions of [the Gilded Age] played out right before your ears by an ensemble of adept and very personable singers. From Populist protests (`The Hand That Holds the Bread') to suffragette anthems (`When the Girls Can Vote'), to racist ditties about Chinese laborers (`Little Ah Sid'), the themes of the times are brought out vividly....If you have any interest at all in the history of our country, I think you'll get a lot out of this off-beat, well-sung anthology."
