How collective bargaining works

About this book

"This volume contains full-length sketches of the actual workings of collective bargaining in sixteen United States trades and industries and thumbnail summaries covering thirteen other fields. Each of the broader pictures covers both the growth of organized dealings between employers and labor unions in the industry, and the situation at the time of writing. Although most of the field work was done in 1939, almost all the chapters include developments in 1940 and about half of them cover events in 1941"--P. vii.
