This article focuses on the books "Hold Your Tongue: Bilingualism and the Politics of "English Only," by James Crawford and "Language Loyalties: A Source Book on the Official English Controversy," edited by James Crawford. Readers looking for insight into the tangled politics of language are well served by Crawford, an educational journalist with a longtime interest in bilingual education. In particular, his edited anthology, "Language Loyalties: A Source Book on the Official English Controversy," is truly superb and belongs on the shelf of every person even mildly interested in the political struggle over language.
