Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed account of the meatpacking industry and one of the most notorious antitrust cases of its era. The author, J. Ogden Armour, outlines the history of the packing industry and refutes the charges of anti-competitive practices brought against his company and other big meat packers by the Federal Trade Commission. Armour gives a detailed account of the competitive landscape and pricing pressures in the industry during the book's 1918 publication date, which illuminates not only the rampant speculation but also the government regulation that would come to define an industry that was, at the time, still in its infancy.
