Description

“The essays in this volume make a splendid contribution to the important fields of US and Australian labor history.--Neville Kirk, author of Labour and the Politics of Empire: Britain and Australia 1900 to the Present
 
“Historians cannot do experiments with history, but we can do the functional equivalent by way of comparative history. This excellent collection compares Australian and US workplace experiences. We expect the differences; these sophisticated labor historians also attend to the surprising extent of ‘commonalities,' which seem to have grown over time.--Melanie Nolan, editor of Revolution: The 1913 Great Strike in New Zealand
