David Montgomery

1927

David Montgomery was a prominent American historian, born on December 1, 1927, and known for his expertise in labor history. He authored "The Fall of the House of Labor," which examines the decline of labor movements in America from the late 19th to early 20th centuries. Montgomery's credibility stems from his background as a former machinist and his academic tenure at Yale University. Other notable works include "Beyond Equality: Labor and the Radical Republicans, 1862-1872" and "Workers' Control in America."
