Why read it?
1 author picked Labor's New Millions as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
As a U.S. labor historian, I’ve read loads of books on the unionization of mass production during the Great Depression.
Labor’s New Millions stands above the rest for its power to make you feel like you’re right there at the picket lines, union halls, and other venues that the journalist Mary Heaton Vorse visited as she gathered material for this book about worker uprisings that put the Congress of Industrial Organizations on the map. As she shows in vivid detail, whole communities rallied to build the CIO, and campaigns for justice on the job spilled over into other realms.
