Publisher's Synopsis

""John Mitchell, Miner: Labor's Bargain With The Gilded Age"" is a biography written by Elsie Gluck that chronicles the life and work of John Mitchell, a prominent labor leader during the Gilded Age in America. Mitchell was a coal miner who rose to prominence as a union organizer and advocate for workers' rights. Gluck's book explores Mitchell's early life, his experiences as a miner, and his rise to leadership in the United Mine Workers of America. The book also delves into the broader social and economic context of the Gilded Age, including the rise of industrial capitalism and the struggles of working-class Americans. Through Mitchell's story, Gluck offers a compelling portrait of a man who fought for justice and dignity for working people in an era marked by extreme inequality and exploitation. Overall, ""John Mitchell, Miner"" is a powerful and insightful account of one man's struggle for social and economic justice in the face of overwhelming odds.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
