About This Item
Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 1968. A more scholarly look at the secret Irish labor society - which remains contentious today, over 100 years after Pinkerton made his reputation by crushing them. Professor Broehl was able to utilize recently opened archives for his research. This is a Near Fine copy of the Third Printing of the First Edition. Red cloth binding with "M.M" on the frontcover; spine label is black and gilt. Clean text; 409 pages, indexed. Mildly bumped, and with a very slight lean. The dustjacket remains bright, but the price has been clipped and it shows some light edgewear, with a small chip at the head of the spine. In an archival plastic protector. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Later Printing. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good.
