Beskrivning
This is a study of the economic lives of American bituminous coal miners in the early part of this century. Most studies of labour in coal mining focus on the struggle to organize unions. This study offers a broader, more quantitative picture of the labour market, making use of economic theory and statistics, and emphasizing competition among employers for labour, the legal environment, the development of institutions in response to transactions costs, as well as the impact of unions.

Recensioner i media
'a stimulating and lucid reassessment of a major area of US labour history ... this is an excellent example of historical economics ... There are very few British labour historians who would not benefit from reading this book. It is an impressive application of labour economics and statistics to the history of aspects of industrial relastions.'Chris Wrigley, Nottingham University, Business History
