Waterfront Workers by Calvin Winslow

Few work settings can compete with the waterfront for a long, rich history of multi-ethnic and multiracial interaction. Here, five scholars focus on the complex relationships involved in this intersection of race, class, and ethnicity. Opens up some of the most significant questions in American labor and social history.--David Brundage, THE MAKING OF WESTERN LABOR RADICALISM: DENVER'S ORGANIZED WORKERS.

"Opens up some of the most significant questions in American labor and social history, including the struggle for control at the workplace and, even more important, the relationship between black and white workers and among various ethnic groups on the docks"--David Brundage, author of The Making of Western Labor Radicalism: Denver's Organized Workers, 1878-1905
