The Right to Work

RAY STANNARD BAKER (1870-1946) was an American journalist, historian, biographer, and author. Starting at the muckraking magazine McClure's his interest in political reform led him to research the social and political position of African-Americans. In addition to Following the Color Line, Baker also wrote the official biography of Woodrow Wilson, under the pen name David Grayson.
