Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book shares the experiences and perspectives of British and Canadian labor representatives who were part of a mission to confer with the American Committee on Labor during World War I. At the request of the American Federation of Labor's President, the British Prime Minister and the Canadian Premier sent delegates to share what they had learned during the war, and to prevent the Americans from making the same mistakes that had cost so much during the early years of the conflict. The representatives testified before Congress, met with business and labor leaders, and visited industrial sites. These interactions not only offered crucial insights based on the British and Canadian experiences but also helped to shape policy and ensure a more unified and effective approach to the war effort. Of particular note, the book highlights the importance of organized labor's role in maintaining industrial peace and the delegates' conviction that by working together, the Allied Powers could achieve victory and uphold the principles of democracy and freedom.
