Seller's Description:
Fine in Very Good Plus jacket. Here is an interesting sidebar to the history of the secret Irish labor organization, the "mollies." Mr. McCarthy contends that there was no such organization; it was a fiction perpetrated by Franklin B. Gowen of the Reading Railroad to destroy the attempts to organize labor in the coal fields; he claims to have new evidence, presented here. A fascinating, and an uncommon book; certainly much of the original testimony was tainted. This is a Fine copy of the First Edition.
