Product Description The 1934 Minneapolis Teamsters Strike proved to be a pivotal event in 20th century American Labor History.

| Customer Reviews:
Well researced, but..... April 29, 2005 I enjoyed this book which is well researched. The chapters titled "Voices" containing oral histories are a very nice insightful touch. Two things do strike me as odd. (1) Farrell Dobbs whose name is almost synonymous with this strike is barely mentioned. (2) Dan Tobin, who was General President of the IBT at the time, is referenced primarily through secondary sources. Did the author not pursue Tobin's papers with the Wisconsin State Historical Society?
