Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, written in 1888 by a man who traveled extensively as a tramp to experience firsthand the lives of working class Americans, provides a comprehensive view of their lives. The author believed that individuals would recognize what measures would best benefit their well-being and carry out such measures without government intervention. However, he found private enterprise often failed in this regard, especially in collecting statistics to inform citizens about critical issues. Consequently, government departments emerged to address this need, including labor bureaus to collect data on labor issues. Although this book does not advocate for government intervention in the economy, it opens a window into late 19th century labor conditions, illuminating the challenges and realities faced by working Americans. Brimming with stories gathered during the authorâs travels, this book offers insights that remain relevant today, particularly regarding the struggles and strengths of the working class. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331593966_0
