Looking around him in 1906, Samuel Gompers saw a labor movement beset
by opponents who, he said, "represent neither conscience nor humanity,
but rather greed and avarice." This installment in the multivolume
documentary history of the nation's premier labor leader spotlights a
pivotal period in the AFL's development.
"The editors have done their job well, succeeding admirably in their
aim of presenting a multidimensional portrait of Gompers and his era."
