The American Federation of Labor is a historical book written by Morton Arnold Aldrich in 1898. The book provides a comprehensive account of the American Federation of Labor (AFL), which was formed in 1886 and became one of the most powerful labor organizations in the United States. Aldrich's book examines the history and development of the AFL, its goals and objectives, and the challenges it faced in its early years. The book also delves into the political and economic climate of the late 19th century, which was marked by rapid industrialization and the rise of big business. Aldrich explores the AFL's efforts to improve working conditions and wages for its members, as well as its role in shaping labor laws and regulations. Throughout the book, Aldrich provides detailed accounts of the AFL's key figures, including its founder Samuel Gompers, and the various labor strikes and protests that the organization led or supported. The book also includes a critical analysis of the AFL's strengths and weaknesses, as well as its impact on American labor relations and society as a whole. Overall, The American Federation of Labor is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of labor movements in the United States, as well as the broader social and economic forces that have shaped American society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
