ITEM OVERVIEW
"In tying the workplace to unionization efforts and in demonstrating the ongoing nature of class formation as a social process, Barrett has enlarged our understanding of the difficulties of unionization in the early twentieth century." -- American Historical Review "Barrett probes and analyzes . . . the workplace and the community. In so doing, he makes some valuable contributions to our understanding of both spheres, and of the relations between them. His analysis also offers new insights into the process of class formation in early twentieth-century industrial America." -- International Labor and Working-Class History "A first-class study of urbanization, immigration and ethnic influences, corporate technology and management, social conditions, and the impact of war on a specialized sector of the economy. Solidly researched, the volume is written in an exciting, absorbing style."-- Illinois Historical Journal And being sold at a 25% discount off the publishers price too!
