". . . should not only be required reading for anyone concerned with fish
trades, but it should also be a practical hand-book for our labour leaders. It is an
excellent study of the use of words."--The Newfoundland Herald
Shows how a union leader, beginning with very few cards in his hands, managed to contrive
a victory for the trawler fishermen of Newfoundland. The social and economic changes in
Newfoundland between 1900 and the year of the strike provide the background for the story. An
important and original study for anyone interested in industrial dispute, the place of
rhetoric in public
life, and the role the media plays in swaying public opinion.
