The Eight-Hour Law is a book that was published in 1918 and written by Graham Egerton. The book is a comprehensive guide to the statutes and legal decisions related to the eight-hour workday. The eight-hour workday was a labor reform movement that sought to limit the number of hours that workers could be required to work in a single day. This movement gained momentum in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as workers sought to improve their working conditions and gain more control over their lives. The Eight-Hour Law provides a detailed overview of the legal framework that supported this movement, including the various statutes and regulations that were put in place to protect workers' rights. The book also includes a wealth of legal decisions, including those made by the Attorney General and the courts, which helped to shape the legal landscape around the eight-hour workday. Overall, The Eight-Hour Law is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of labor reform and the legal framework that supports workers' rights.And The Executive Orders Suspending Its Provisions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
