About this book

John L. Lewis: A Biography by Van Tine, Warren Van. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780252012877.

John L. Lewis (1880-1969), who ruled the United Mine Workers for four decades beginning in 1919, defied presidents, challenged Congress, and kept American political life in an uproar. Drawing upon previously untapped resources in the UMW archives and upon oral histories by major figures of the 1930s and 1940s, the authors have created a remarkable portrait of this self-made man and his times.
