Warne, Frank Julien. Coal-mine workers: a study in labor organization. **$1. Longmans.
This little volume is the direct outgrowth of Dr. Warne’s sympathetic study of the coal-miners’ situation in periods of peace as well as in times of strikes. It is a “treatise on the anatomy of the trade union.” (N. Y. Times.)
“Dr. Warne has done a valuable service in placing in compact and readable form a study of the United mine workers of America, one of the strongest labor unions in the world.” E. S. Meade.

“It might also be described as a miniature encyclopedia, so full of information is it and so readily does it answer the questions that occur to one regarding the miners and their employers.”
