Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an expose of the meatpacking industry and the rise and tactics of the Beef Trust from the perspective of the author who spent over 40 years as a cattle and hog broker, most of it dealing directly with the meatpacking giants of the time. The author reveals the massive… fraud in the meat industry and how the Beef Trust used its power to become a dominating force in national politics as well as the food industry. This book, originally self-published in part, was written in the early 20th century, when the meatpacking industry was at its height of corruption and influence over the federal government. The author, as a direct insider within the industry, provides a thorough examination of the tactics used by the Beef Trust, and reveals the political and financial power at its disposal, allowing the reader to understand how the public interest can be subverted by special interests. By providing this historical account of the Beef Trust, this book provides valuable insights on the complex relationship between big business and government during the Gilded Age.
