Reviews
This book is as interesting as the title promises. It is an excellent little volume, succinct and well-researched. The main thesis of the book is compellingly laid out, bringing readers easily to share the author's contention that union-busting today is much the same as it was in 1880. -- Labor Studies Journal Online Few people, even in the labor movement, know the tremendous investment and effort put into unionbusting over the past century. The book vividly demonstrates the need for labor history as an integral part of labor education and a stimulus to activism. -- Labor Studies Journal Online This work will become the convenient handbook for the distasteful but necessary look at the rearguard tactics that still too often shape American labor-management relations. -- Scott Molloy * Labor Research Center, University of Rhode Island *
