THE LIFE WORK OF EDWARD A. MOSELEY. In The Service Of Humanity.

Descripción

378 pages. "Edward A. Moseley, Secretary of the Interstate Commerce Commission from its organization in 1887 until his death in 1911, held only a modest office, but in the final accounting he is disclosed a creditor of humanity. The story needs to be told all the more because the general public knows so little of this government official who quietly turned what might have been a routine task into a noble service on behalf of his fellow men. His work and his papers specially deserve the attention of those who are interested in the development of the federal power as a regulative agency, and the narrative and documents of his long and successful endeavor before Congress and in the courts are significant materials for an opening chapter in the history of the supervision by the nation of interstate affairs." VERY GOOD HARDCOVER, green cloth covers, lettering is bright on the spine. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. N° de ref. del artículo 027474
