Excerpt from Chicago to-Day: The Labour War in America The recent terrible outburst of industrial war in the United States of America leads me to issue this brief and rapid survey of the events which have occurred this summer at Chicago. During my sojourn last winter in that great city, I had the opportunity of making the personal acquaintance of most of those who are leading the forces on either side, and since my return to London I have neglected no Opportunity of keeping myself informed of the way in which things were going. In this volume I have endeavoured to piece together several more or less fragmentary studies of the labour move ment and the problems which it raises in America to-day. Three of the chapters have appeared respectively in the Contemporary Review, the New Review, and the Review of Reviews, but the bulk of the work is now printed for the first time. I hope I may be excused for reproducing some passages from my earlier book, If Christ came to Chicago? They are very brief, and they are necessary to the due presentation of the case. With that exception this book covers new ground, and may be said to be in some sense as a sequel up to date of the other volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
