This labor history recounts the narrative of organized labor movements from their inception, notably focusing on the history of the Victoria Trades and Labour Council through union efforts, accomplishments, and tribulations from its inception in 1890 onwards. This volume also includes a directory of Victoria unions as of the book's 1912 publication date, and the growing popularity of unionism on the west coast of Canada at the time. The author draws upon the context of progressive-era labor at the turn of the 20th century to frame a discussion on the role of the working class in shaping a city on the rise. Through in-depth research in union archives combined with primary source analysis, this book illuminates the struggles, successes, and profound social impact of labor movements throughout the province of British Columbia.
