In this richly documented account, Gary Fink explores the year-long strike that followed, using the reports of labor spies who were paid by management to gather information about striking employees and to disrupt union organizing activities UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781501734557 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781501734557 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781501734557/original ER -
