From the folks who brought you the weekend : a short, illustrated history of labor in the United States by Priscilla Murolo
If you want a survey, here's a survey. I'm not sure what Joe Sacco's illustrations added, though.
From the folks who brought you the weekend : a short, illustrated history of labor in the United States by Priscilla Murolo
A history of organized labor. The dramatic struggle of labor to organize and obtain some basic standards of treatment. These are the people who standardized the 8 hour work day and the 5 day work week. These facts of our every day life were won through difficult fights. This book reminds us of the work and sacrifice of union members nationwide.
