This biographical study analyzes the careers and thinking of a
dozen union leaders of Irish descent who contributed significantly
to the union movement. The work demonstrates the pragmatic approach
of the majority of these leaders arising from disappointing
experience with radical ideas embraced in their youth. Their object
was cohesion among diverse nationalities in the work force to build
strong national unions able to eliminate destructive wage
competition in ever-widening markets. Beginning with background on
Irish immigration, the study follows developments from the 1870s
and extends through those who were active in the 1950s on both
coasts and in the mid-west. It is the first book written for
scholars and others dealing with Irish-American unionists in depth.
