(4) YA Great Events series. An undramatic recounting of the Pullman strike provides historical background to the event, explains the positions of both labor and management, and details the strike's violence and subsequent legal battles. A final chapter sums up the issues that led to the strike and that had far-reaching consequences for American labor. The bland text is illustrated with black-and-white photos and reproductions. Bib., ind.
