Customer Reviews

An excellent history of the events that shaped current law

Taylor and Witney provide an excellent history of the shaping of American labor law. Starting with the early attempts to squash labor unions with the English common law theory of conspiracy, the authors move us through some of the important common law cases such as Commonwealth v. Hunt and Danbury Hatters. Their history takes us to the formation of the Wagner Act and the birth of the NLRA. The appendixes include texts of the NLRA (Wagner Act). This is an excellent companion book to any Labor Law textbook.
