The Rise And Fall Of The Knights Of Labor

Abstract: 7 pages in length. Working conditions as we know them today are as good as they are due in part to the formation of the Noble Order of the Knights of Labor. Assembled back in the late 1800's, the Knights made great strides for the betterment of deplorable labor settings for women, blacks, children and all others who were taken advantage of in the skilled labor world. The writer chronologically addresses the formation, achievements and ultimate dissolution of the Knights of Labor. Bibliography included.
