Craig Heron is one of Canada's leading labour historians. Drawing
together fifteen of Heron's new and previously published essays on
working-class life in Canada, Working Lives covers a wide range of
issues, including politics, culture, gender, wage-earning, and
union organization. A timely contribution to the evolving field of
labour studies in Canada, this cohesive collection of essays
analyzes the daily experiences of people working across Canada over
more than two hundred years. Honest in its depictions of the
historical complexities of daily life, Working Lives raises issues
in the writing of Canadian working-class history, especially
"working-class realism" and how it is eventually inscribed into
Canada's public history. Thoughtfully reflecting on the ways in
which workers interact with the past, Heron discusses the important
role historians and museums play in remembering the adversity and
milestones experienced by Canada's working class.
