Excerpt from A Brief History of the Union Labor Legislative Movement in Texas A sincere regret, as well as an apology for the omission from the first edition of this important history of this brief biography is offered here, the reason for which was purely an oversight of the publishers. T. P. O'Rourke, the author, as one of the best and the most favorably known men connected with the labor movement in the South, and especially in the legislative branch. He is loved and admired by all union labor, and his work has proven him to be entirely and absolutely unselfish in all things which bring the greatest good to the greatest number. Though broken in health, his mind is as active and his heart as sympathetic for the true ideals of the working people as when in the prime of life; just as aggressive, just as fearless, just as kind and solicitous for mankind. And when upon the scroll of time another chapter of the Union Labor Legislative history in Texas shall have been recorded, his name will brighten its pages and his achievements enthuse the minds and lighten the hearts of those who may attempt to follow his example. A strong writer, an effective worker, a Christian gentleman and truly one of God's noblemen. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The author is convinced that there is a ruling class in America today. He examines the American power structure as it has developed in the 1980s. He presents systematic, empirical evidence that a fixed group of privileged people dominates the American economy and government. The book demonstrates that an upper class comprising only one-half of one percent of the population occupies key positions within the corporate community. It shows how leaders within this "power elite" reach government and dominate it through processes of special-interest lobbying, policy planning and candidate selection. It is written not to promote any political ideology, but to analyze our society with accuracy.

Why did American workers, unlike their European counterparts, fail to forge a class-based movement to pursue broad social reform? Was it simply that they lacked class consciousness and were more interested in personal mobility? In a richly detailed survey of labor law and labor history, William Forbath challenges this notion of American “individualism.” In fact, he argues, the nineteenth-century American labor movement was much like Europe’s labor movements in its social and political outlook, but in the decades around the turn of the century, the prevailing attitude of American trade unionists changed. Forbath shows that, over time, struggles with the courts and the legal order were crucial to reshaping labor’s outlook, driving the labor movement to temper its radical goals.
