In 'Union Booms and Busts', authors Judith Stepan-Norris and Jasmine Kerrissey explain the evolution of the U.S. labour movement and shed light on the fluctuating strength of unionisation in the past 115 years. Unlike other accounts, this book features detailed data to demonstrate the shifting fortunes of workers over time and by industry.
