Examines how trade unionism has waxed and waned in the nation's political and moral imagination, among both devoted partisans and intransigent foes. This book takes us all the way to the organizing fever of Los Angeles, where the labor movement stands at the center of the effort to transform millions of new immigrants into alert citizen unionists.
