Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book recounts the tumultuous life of Harry Bridges, a powerful labor leader who rose to prominence on the San Francisco waterfront during the turbulent 1930s. The author offers a gripping narrative that unfolds against the backdrop of the Great Depression, the rise of industrial unions, and the intense political and social anxieties of the time. The book examines the fierce struggles between organized labor and powerful industrialists, exposing the lengths to which employers would go to undermine union organizing and silence dissenting voices. The story delves into the complex web of accusations and counter-accusations that surrounded Bridges, who was targeted for deportation by those who saw him as a threat to American society. Through its exploration of the Bridges case, this book offers a fascinating glimpse into the social and political dynamics that shaped the American labor movement in the twentieth century, revealing the stark realities of labor conflict, political manipulation, and the relentless pursuit of power. The author's meticulous research and gripping storytelling provide a unique and insightful perspective on a key figure in American labor history.
