Overview
Carrying the narrative to the year 2003 in the new edition of his history of Labor, a revised version of a work first authored by Foster Rhea Dulles, Dubofsky (State U. of New York at Binghamton) traces the politics and economics of laborers and labor unions, beginning his narrative in colonial America. Among the topics explored are the role of workers in the American Revolution, the growth of labor unions, the impact of industrialism, the rise of a national labor union, the impact of the radical Industrial Workers of the World (the Wobblies), the impact of the New Deal, and the decline of the unions in recent years.
