Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Annals of the Great Strikes in the United States: A Reliable History and Graphic Description of the Causes and Thrilling Events of the Labor Strikes and Riots of 1877
These are features of the Great Strikes Which awaken our profound attention, and demand that the record be made up While the events are still fresh in the minds of the people. No better testimonial to the sterling worth of the American character, no better evidence of their fitness for self-government, can be produced than is fur hished by their conduct in'rising in majesty in favor of law and order, during the Nation's trials. The Ameri can people are emphatically upholders of the principles of social order and the reign of law. For these reasons the author has undertaken the onerous task of gathering Up the scattered facts Which go to make up the complete history of the Great Strikes.
