Excerpt from Story of His Life Told by Himself
To couple my name with that of Joseph Arch gives me no displeasure. I believe him to be an honest and good man. I believe, too, that the cause he has in hand is well founded, and I confide in his using no means to promote it but such as are sanctioned by the law of God and the law of the land.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of Joseph Arch, an agricultural labourer who became a prominent leader of the agricultural workers' union in England in the late 19th century. Though Arch spent his early life in poverty, he possessed a robust constitution and a stubborn determination. His mother, a remarkable woman of strong will and independence, instilled in him the principles of self-reliance and self-help. Arch's experiences as a labourer, including witnessing the horrors of poverty and starvation during the Repeal of the Corn Laws, left an indelible impression on him. He emerged as a voice for the voiceless, fighting against unfair practices, low wages, and the exploitation of rural workers. Arch's unwavering commitment and leadership played a significant role in improving the working conditions and lives of agricultural laborers, leaving a lasting legacy in the history of labour movements.
