Yet even after he finally revealed his identity in 2005, questions about his true motivations persisted.Max Holland has found the missing piece of that Deep Throat puzzle--one that's been hidden in plain sight all along.

This book attempts to throw new light on that early labor movement, mainly by answering the questions that modern critics have raised concerning its authenticity, but the major concern of the volume is with the labor leaders' views regarding American society.

At a time when the mass of Americans seemed to be engaged in a frenzied contest for material gain, and increasingly optimistic about their chances, the labor leaders stood apart both from the pursuit of the main chance and from its moralistic critics.
