Reseña del libro "Where We Worked: A Celebration of America's Workers and the Nation They Built (en Inglés)"

A lavishly illustrated tribute to the American worker"Where We Worked "presents a richly illustrated and beautifully evocative panorama of the experience of work and the workplace in America during the golden age of labor--from the Industrial Revolution to the monumental task of building an economic and military superpower that was able to defeat fascism and spread democracy throughout the world.Replete with 400 photos, this highly readable""book comprises powerful images of workers in their workplaces, first-person accounts of men and women at work, and an engaging historical narrative. Chapters include "Working the Land," which takes us from farming in the North to the long hard death of slavery in the South; "Workshop and Household," which covers the mechanic's world, shoemaking and printing, and the transition from shops to factories; "Wrestling with Nature," an homage to those who have toiled to draw the wealth of America's natural resources in the areas of lumber, coal, and oil; and "Power and Production," which looks at the textile, railroad, steel, and car industries, as well as office work.
