A History of the U.S. Labor Movement & Unions

by emiliemartine
//
20 books

For those who like the weekend, fair wages, the 40 hour work week (already seems unattainable!), and don't believe in child labor - a history of the fight. Seems like we are still having to work at it, since there are some that want to take these rights away. This is a non-fiction list - and I am open to recommendations!
