دانلود کتاب A Serf’s Journal: The Story of the United States’ Longest Wildcat Strike

Recalling the JeffBoat strike of 2001, A Serf's Journal is Terry Tapp's formidable first-hand account of American workers in Jeffersonville, Indiana, as they fought a multinational company and their corrupt union to stage the longest wildcat strike in US history.

"A Serf’s Journal shows us the ugly underbelly of an industry and the vision is gut wrenching. The company’s bullying and disregard of employee safety are regularly on display such as when authoritarian foremen try to force welders to work in the rain risking electrocution. That’s illegal, routine, and just one example. The ladders are rickety and the supplies often toxic. The list of safety violations is exhaustive, but carries no consequences for the company, only the employees. These people live paycheck-to-paycheck in daily danger and yet nobody cares about them. Nobody is their advocate: Neither their union nor the government. And that indifference and isolation enables gross corporate exploitation." - Jerome Nicolas, review on Amazon
