Village Trade Unions in Two Centuries

First published in 1919, Village Trade Unions in Two Centuries by Ernest Selley traces the evolution of rural trade unions from their 19th-century beginnings to their 20th-century revival. Through key events like "The Revolt" and "The Awakening," Selley highlights the struggles, resilience, and leadership that shaped grassroots movements. A century later, the book remains relevant, offering timeless lessons on collective action and the enduring fight for workers' rights. This book will be of interest to students of labour history, political history and history in general.
