Summary:
"You work three times longer than the average industrial worker--at half the pay. Death is an occupational hazard. And the law says you can't have a union. In 1970, Everett Richardson and about 250 other Nova Scotia fishermen went on a fifteen-month strike just for the right to unionize. The strike divided the province, mesmerized the country and rallied the labour movement from coast to coast. For the fishermen, this classsic labour struggle was a bitter education in the realities of corporate capitalism. The Education of Everett Richardson tells how "the system" works, and gives a workers-eye view of the strikes's individual dramas and collective heroism. It is a rare and singularly moving book." --Back cover.
