Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book details the formation of the Department of Building Trades of the American Federation of Labor, and was published Monday, February 10, 1908, by order of the American Federation of Labor. The department was created in response to a resolution passed at the Norfolk Convention of the Federation without dissent, and its purpose was to bring together and empower all bona fide national and international building trades organizations, giving them autonomy over their own affairs. The book argues that other similar organizations had failed to achieve this level of success and autonomy, and that with the sanction of the Federation, this department could succeed. The book includes a record of the department's first convention, along with the addresses given by Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, and James Kirby, president of the newly formed department.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores literary journalism and how it differs from more traditional forms of journalism. The author traces its history back to the 19th century, arguing that literary journalism emerged as a way to tell stories that were too complex or nuanced for traditional news reporting. The author analyzes the work of some of the most famous literary journalists, including Truman Capote, Norman Mailer, and Joan Didion, to illustrate the techniques and strategies they used to create their compelling narratives. Ultimately, the book argues that literary journalism is a powerful tool for understanding the world around us, and that it can offer insights that are not available from other forms of journalism.

Victoria Cross official citation: The King has been graciously pleased to approve the award of the Victoria Cross for daring and valour in the attack on the German Naval Base at St. Nazaire, to:Commander Robert Edward Dudley Ryder, Royal Navy. For great gallantry in the attack on St Nazaire. He commanded a force of small unprotected ships in an attack on a heavily defended port and led H.M.S. Campbeltown in under intense fire from short range weapons at point blank range. Though the main object of the expedition had been accomplished in the beaching of Campbeltown, he remained on the spot conducting operations, evacuating men from Campbeltown and dealing with strong points and close range weapons while exposed to heavy fire for one hour and sixteen minutes, and did not withdraw till it was certain that his ship could be of no use in rescuing any of the Commando Troops who were still ashore. That his Motor Gun Boat, now full of dead and wounded, should have survived and should have been able to withdraw through an intense barrage of close range fire was almost a miracle.
