5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly vivid telling of a riveting story, September 18, 2000
This review is from: Talking Union (Paperback)
Where history books place dry facts, dates, and seemingly distant, irrelevant stories, this book brings home the first person accounts of the brave and dedicated organizers of the Ford Rogue Plant. Spanning from the 20's to the 70's, these accounts are told in the words of a tapestry of workers, union officials, and politicians. The stories they tell are moving, riveting, and allowed me to actually understand whate really happened in the unionist movement from the people who were there.

The book focuses not only on what happened, but why. It takes a concentrated look at what was going on in America politically and the effect that each thing had on the move to organize. The format is clear and concise, but it is still very intriguing reading.

Everyone in America should read this book, and anyone who has any interest or membership in an American Trade Union of any kind NEEDS to read this book. It's what it is all about: freedom, democracy, power of the people when they stand united.
