Step back into the shop floors, tenements and mills of early 1900s United States, captured not in memory but in meticulous figures and official reports. History in raw, unvarnished numbers. Bulletin of the Department of Labor; No. 35 - July, 1901 stands as an authoritative government labor bulletin, offering a contemporaneous snapshot of industrial labor conditions 1901, workers wages and hours, and the shifting landscape of labor legislation history at the dawn of the Progressive Era. Attributed to Alexander Kent and issued by the U.S. Department of Labor, this historical labor report functions as both narrative and labor statistics reference, revealing how policy-makers, reformers and employers understood work, risk and reward in an age of rapid industrial change. For readers drawn to progressive era labor history and u.s. labor history studies, it is a rare labor history primary source: unfiltered, data-rich, and grounded in the official voice of the state. Researchers and historians resource, yes - but also an evocative window for general readers curious about the realities behind reform debates and the lived experience of ordinary workers. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This carefully produced edition of the department of labor bulletin honours the integrity of the original while inviting both serious scholars and thoughtful casual readers to handle, annotate and display a document that helped define modern ideas of labour, regulation and social justice.
