"""In what is one of the best books I have read on organising, Eline Van Ommen, a lecturer in Contemporary History at the University of Leeds, celebrates the role played by grassroots organisers in transforming history."" * Morning Star * ""Clearly, van Ommen’s archival research is impressive. In addition to being expertly researched in at least four languages and across many archives, Nicaragua Must Survive accomplishes the challenging task of contextualizing and explaining the policy actions of many different nations, administrations, and organizations. In this task, van Ommen’s clear writing goes a long way."" * NACLA *"
