Description

Explore the intense history of maritime labor through Brotherhood of the Sea: A History of the Sailors' Union of the Pacific, 1885-1985. Published by Routledge, this book provides a detailed look at the struggles and triumphs of waterfront workers over a century of change. Readers will learn about the massive 1934 strike that shook the Pacific Coast, affecting both docks and ships. This account covers the era when the Sailors' Union of the Pacific was reborn after a period of inactivity following World War I. It details the heavy conflicts on San Francisco's Embarcadero, an event so intense it required the stationing of National Guard troops on the front lines. This text is an essential resource for those interested in business and economic history, labor movements, and the maritime industry. It offers a deep dive into how a union fought for its place in history from 1885 through 1985.
