Capital And Labor (1907)

By W.S. Harris

Book Overview

Capital and Labor is a book written by William Shuler Harris in 1907. It is a detailed examination of the relationship between capital and labor during the Industrial Revolution. The book explores the social and economic impact of the rise of industrial capitalism on workers and their families. Harris argues that the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few capitalists has led to the exploitation of the working class and the creation of a vast underclass of impoverished people. He also examines the various ways in which workers have tried to resist this exploitation, including the formation of labor unions and the organization of strikes. The book is a powerful critique of the capitalist system and a call to action for workers to fight for their rights and dignity. It is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the social and economic conditions of the early 20th century and remains relevant today as workers continue to struggle for fair wages and working conditions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
