''A Little Knight of Labor'' is a children’s book written by Susan Coolidge and first published in 1889. The story follows the adventures of a young boy named Dick, who becomes a member of the Knights of Labor, a labor union that fought for workers’ rights in the late 19th century. Through Dick’s experiences, the book explores the issues of child labor, working conditions, and the struggle for fair wages. Along the way, Dick learns about the importance of standing up for what is right and working together to make a difference. The book is a classic example of children’s literature from the Progressive Era, and it remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of labor and social reform in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
