The AFL was one of the most influential labor unions in the United States, playing a key role in shaping labor laws and improving working conditions for millions of workers over the course of its existence.This book provides a detailed overview of the AFL's history, from its founding in the late 19th century to its eventual merger with the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) in the mid-20th century. It covers the organization's key leaders, including Samuel Gompers, John L. Lewis, and George Meany, as well as its major achievements, such as the establishment of the eight-hour workday and the creation of Social Security.The book also includes an extensive encyclopedia of terms related to the AFL, including information on its various departments, committees, and affiliated organizations. It also provides a comprehensive reference section, with lists of important dates, organizations, and individuals associated with the AFL.Overall, the American Federation of Labor: History, Encyclopedia, Reference Book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of labor unions in the United States, as well as for researchers and scholars studying the social and political history of the country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
