Despite widespread interest in the trade union movement and its history, it has never been easy to trace the development of individual unions, especially those now defunct, or where name changes or mergers have confused the trail. In this respect the standard histories and industrial studies tend to stimulate curiosity rather than satisfy it. When was a union founded? When did it merge or dissolve itself, or simply disappear? What records survive and where can further details of its history be found? These are the kinds of question the Directory sets out to answer. Each entry is arranged according to a standard plan, as follows: 1. Name of union; 2. Foundation date: Name changes (if any) and relevant dates. Any amalgamation or transfer of engagements. Cessation, winding up or disappearance, with date and reasons where appropriate and available; 3. Characteristics of: membership, leadership, policy, outstanding events, membership (numbers). 4. Sources of information: books, articles, minutes etc; location of documentation.

A RICH CHRISTMAS
A Debut Book by Victoria Ryan-Bailey
Vinnie and Stephanie were best friends. While one was black and the other white, differences among others threatened to spoil their friendship. It took a strange chain of events during the holiday to teach them true friendship can make a world of difference.
Set in 1967 in St. Louis, Mo., A Rich Christmas depicts the struggle of two sixth grade girls to gain and maintain a positive perspective on life, humanity, cultural differences, social injustice, and racial prejudice. Their honesty and persistance will inspire parents, teachers, and children alike.
This heartwarming story teaches youth many lifelong lessons about love, devotion, family, values, faith, unity and respect. A Rich Christmas also teaches youth that the search for purpose and destiny must include education.
A Rich Christmas is a great gift for any middle or high school student. The book also features "The Secret Scar," a poem about children with HIV/AIDS. A portion of all proceeds go to education and HIV/AIDS assistance.
