ABOUT THIS BOOK
ABOUT THIS BOOK
 
      The World of the Worker illuminates workers' lives at home, on
        the job, and in the voting booths. A new preface enhances this social,
        cultural, and political history: an unparalleled picture of working people
        during the turbulent rise and fall of the labor movement.
      "A fresh and provocative look at twentieth-century American unions,
        and a fine introduction to recent labor history scholarship." --
        Leslie Woodcock Tentler, Washington Post Book World
      "Will be welcomed by anyone with a serious interest in labor history."
        -- Library Journal
      "Probably the best social history of twentieth-century labor
        there is." -- Kirkus Reviews
      "Virtually replaces any previously existing one-volume popular history
        of the labor movement." -- Ron Radosh, Democratic Left
