Finance And Hours Of Labor (1868)

By Rowland Gibson Hazard

Book Overview

""Finance and Hours of Labor"" is a book written by Rowland Gibson Hazard in 1868. The book discusses the relationship between finance and labor, particularly in the United States during the mid-19th century. Hazard argues that the financial system of the time was designed to benefit the wealthy at the expense of the working class, and that this system needed to be reformed in order to create a more equitable society. He also examines the issue of hours of labor, arguing that workers should have shorter workdays and more time for leisure and education. Throughout the book, Hazard draws on his own experiences as a wealthy businessman and philanthropist to illustrate his points. ""Finance and Hours of Labor"" is an important historical document that sheds light on the economic and social conditions of the United States during a crucial period of its development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
