The Workers in American History
234 pages. Footnotes. "Few histories today give the reader any adequate idea of how the toilers lived, struggled and died in America... Some of the statements made in the following pages will come as a shock to those who have absorbed the current views of American history, and yet no important assertion is made without rererence to standard authorities." - from Preface. Chapters include: The European Background; Land Conquests in America; White Slavery in the Colonies; The White Slave Trade; Rebellions of the Poor; General Status of the Workers; Causes of the American Revolution; The Constitutional Convention, a Conspiracy; The Period of Struggle. Prior owner's details inside front board and on back free endpaper along with contemporary bookseller's ink stamp. Moderate quantity of pencil markings and red pencil underlining to contents.
