The Trade Unions: An Appeal To The Working Classes And Their Friends is a book written by Robert Somers in 1876. The book is a call to action for the working classes and their allies to organize and form trade unions to fight for better working conditions, wages, and rights. Somers argues that by joining together in unions, workers can negotiate with employers on an equal footing and demand fair treatment. The book provides historical context for the rise of trade unions in England and outlines the benefits of union membership. It also addresses common criticisms of unions and offers rebuttals. Overall, The Trade Unions: An Appeal To The Working Classes And Their Friends is a passionate plea for workers to unite and fight for their rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
