Table of ContentsReviewsIn this beautifully crafted new history of capitalism, Arnold shows us how rough and tumble community unionism worked in the years before unions came to the coalfields. We learn about strikes led by women, rough music, square turns, and miner's freedoms and then how the Knights of Labor and United Mine Workers both emerged by relying on these long and deep coalfield traditions. Vital for anyone wanting to understand the relationship between international capitalism and workplace rights. -Scott Nelson, Legum Professor of History, The College of William & Mary Author InformationAndrew B. Arnold is Chair of the History Department at Kutztown University of Pennsylvania. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
