Sample Book Insights:

#1 The American labor movement owes a huge debt to women. Women were allowed to join early labor organizations, such as the Knights of Labor and the Industrial Workers of the World, but their relatively inclusive outlook made them outliers in the broader labor landscape.

#2 The Victorian era was a time when women were expected to be housewives, and any deviation from this norm was viewed as socially suspect. For middle- and upper-class women, the thought of earning money for their toil was completely foreign.

#3 The first strike in the country’s history was conducted by textile workers in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, in 1824. The women blockaded the mills’ entrances and loudly declared their intention to stay out of work until the new orders were rescinded.

#4 The Industrial Revolution brought with it a wave of child labor in mills across New England. By the time of the Pawtucket mill strike, their sisters of the loom had already been sweating away in mills across New England for more than a decade.
