2007réf. 201323Windsor Ontario: Art Gallery of Windsor 2007. Hardcover. VG. Grey DJ with white and black lettering and bw illustration; beige boards with black lettering; 132 pp.; richly illustrated. Text in English and French. "In 1951 Yousuf Karsh accepted a Ford commission to photograph workers for use in the carmaker's advertising and annual reports. While not the subjects normally associated with the internationally-renowned photographer the workers at the Ford Motor Company and Atlas Steels in Ontario and Sharon Steel in Pennsylvania are portrayed with the same luminsoity as his celebrity portraits. But some were not published. Considering them provocative and suggestive Ford rejected many of the photographs including the cover image shown here. In retrospect these portraits reveal Karsh's uncanny ability to seize the individuality of each of his subjects through a meticulous attention to detail and great technical prowess."-- Jacket.

An exceptional copy. 2018 Hard Cover. xii 217 pp. Figures maps and tables throughout. Extensive notes bibliography and index follow text. An innovative study of labor relations particularly the interactions of recruitment agents and migrant workers in the mining concessions of Wassa Gold Coast Colony 1879 to 1909. Recent years have seen renewed interest in the historical study of labor in Africa. Unlike those of the past these new studies are rooted in the recognition of Africa's dynamic expansive and productive informal sector. While this book focuses on one of West Africa's earliest large-scale industries namely the Wassa gold mines in the southwest Gold Coast it is not solely concerned with the traditional working class. Rather it explores the plurality oflabor relations that characterized the mining concessions during the period 1879 to 1909 including the presence of migrants from various parts of West Africa as well as casual and tributary laborers both male and female. In capturing the phenomenon of labor mobility as it played out in Wassa Mediators Contract Men and Colonial Capital presents one of the fullest accounts of the labor agents who regularly brought groups of migrant laborers to the mines. The narrative discusses these agents' means of employment and roles in the informalization and indentureship of labor; in addition it explores the regional dynamics of the recruitment machinery and confronts issues of coercion and choice. Scholars interested in African history global labor history economic history and women's work in Africa will find much of value in this innovative study.
