More about the book

The violent confrontation in Homestead, Pennsylvania, on July 6, 1892, marked a significant turning point in American labor history. Armed Pinkerton agents clashed with striking workers at Carnegie Steelworks, leading to a pivotal moment for unionism in the U.S. This event initiated a swift decline for steel unions, a trend that persisted until the Great Depression, highlighting the struggles and consequences faced by labor movements during this tumultuous period.
