Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Handbook of Labor Literature: Being a Classified and Annotated List of the More Important Books and Pamphlets in the English Language Many libraries are still neglectful of collecting this material, notwithstanding a new appreciation of its value. It is hoped that this book will help to make these publications accessible to the general reader, and to follow out this idea the addresses of societies will be found in the list of publishers, appended. It has been possible to omit the periodical literature, which is very important, because it is already so well indexed. "Poole´s Index," beginning with 1802 and brought down to the present time by the "Annual Literary Index," with the "Cumulative Index" and the index in each number of the "Review of Reviews" makes the periodical literature always accessible down to the present month. It is difficult to know how to make acknowledgment of the assistance received in the compilation of this work. Suggestions have been received from Professors Jeremiah W. Jenks, Richard T. Ely, Edward W. Bemis and John R. Commons, Mrs. Eliza W. Twitchell, Mr. James F. Rhodes, Mr. Benjamin R. Tucker; and most valuable assistance from Dr. Frederic W. Speirs, Dr. Henry R. Seager and Mr. Morrison I. Swift. Dr. Seager and Dr. Speirs have been especially helpful in reading both manuscript and proof. Personally the compiler is indebted to Miss Elizabeth Marot, who has made the completion of the work possible, for her tireless assistance in copying and recopying manuscript. And it is a pleasure to have at last an opportunity to thank the assistants of the following libraries for their kindness in complying with requests which involved more than their usual efforts in behalf of readers. These libraries are the Library of the Philadelphia Library Association, the Library of the Drexel Institute, the Library of the University of Pennsylvania, the Mercantile Library of Philadelphia, the Library of Columbia College, the Library of the Department of Labor at Washington and the Library of the British Museum.
