A Dolores Huerta Reader, edited by Mario T. Garcia, and published in 2008 by the University of New Mexico Press, is a book of compiled texts about activist and union leader Dolores Huerta. The book chronicles Huerta's work as an environmentalist, feminist, and leader of the United Farm Workers labor union; it also includes Huerta's perspective on the work she has done within her lifetime.
Synopsis.

Part one is compiled of primary and secondary literature written about Huerta, including articles, book chapters, and journalistic pieces. Part two is autobiographical, and consisted of interviews, public statements, conference dialogues, and correspondence written by Huerta herself.
In chapter 18, Huerta shares the details of her path to community organizing; first working with the Community Service Organization (CSO) and later working with César Chávez and the United Farm Workers union in the first successful attempt to unionize farmworkers in the United States.
Reception.
