"I've had what I think is the richest, most self~fulfilling kind of experience that a human being has. I have been living what I believe . "~WALTER REUTHER. For more than thirty years, Walter Reuther was one of the most dynamic and controversial labor leaders in the United States. His untimely death on May 9, 1970, ended an exciting chapter in union history and American life. In this fascinating, fast moving biography Frank Cormier and William J. Eaton present a definitive portrait of Walter Reuther who rose from the ranks of labor to become one of a small company of American labor statesmen. Here we see young Reuther being indoctrinated in trade unionism at home; we go with him on a trip around the world including the controversial period spent working in a Soviet auto plant; we relive the bitter days when the fledgling U.A.W. battled against the industry .giants ~ Ford, G.M., Chrysler; we are on lookers as the auto workers emerge from their siege of Detroit, battered but victorious; we watch Walter Reuther advance from a position as a worker in a Ford plant to head of one of the most powerful unions in the world. Across the anecdote~filled pages march a steady stream of illustrious names: John L. Lewis, Philip Murray, George Meany, Sidney Hillman, Eleanor Roosevelt, FDR, Truman, Stevenson, Kennedy, Johnson, Khrushchev. For Reuther the labor movement was more than just a means of getting a fatter pay envelope; it was also an effective tool for social progress. This vision led him to champion such causes as civil rights and civil liberties, a program to provide adequate housing for all Americans, improved medical care, consumer protection, a world free from poverty and disease, a clean environment, nuclear disarmament, and a world community at peace. Reuther, a genius at collective bargaining also led the U.A.W.'s pioneering for such plans as company~paid hospital~surgica lmedical benefits, cost~of~living protection, and guaranteed annual income. When a small jet plane crashed into a wooded area near Pellston, Michigan, the life and career of Walter Reuther came to an abrupt end, and his friends and enemies, his associates and strangers mourned the loss of this man who so intensely lived what he believed.
