Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex world of labor-management relations in the mid-20th century, focusing on the tumultuous relationship between the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company (A&P), one of the largest retail organizations in the world, and the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen of North America. The author meticulously examines the events surrounding the unionization of A&P grocery clerks in the New York metropolitan area during the 1950s, a period characterized by increasing unionization efforts and significant shifts in the labor landscape. The narrative unfolds through the lens of Patrick Reape, a former A&P manager who became a prominent labor leader and whose experiences highlight the power struggles, manipulation, and secrecy that often permeated collective bargaining negotiations. The author sheds light on the controversial circumstances surrounding the signing of union contracts, the allegations of collusion between company officials and union leaders, and the employees' struggle for democratic representation. The book also delves into the ethical complexities of labor negotiations and the impact of secret agreements, ultimately raising important questions about the integrity of the collective bargaining process. Ultimately, this book offers a compelling and revealing glimpse into the intricate dynamics of labor-management relations during a pivotal era in American history.
