The Man Who Watched the Trains Go By

All too often, progressives in Fresno who work for peace, social and economic justice are ignored by the mainstream media. By telling these stories -- originally published in Fresno's Community Alliance newspaper -- Richard Stone has given us all a gift of immeasurable value.
The articles remind us of the passion these community activists have; Stone's compilation of these stories validates both the work they have done and the work many continue to do. If you find that some of the people in this book are unknown to you, that is because they have been hidden in plain sight.
