""A Strike of Millionaires Against Miners, or The Story of Spring Valley: An Open Letter to the Millionaires"" is a book written by Henry Demarest Lloyd in 1890. The book tells the story of a strike that occurred in Spring Valley, Illinois, where millionaire coal mine owners refused to negotiate with their striking workers. The book is written as an open letter to the millionaires, urging them to see the error of their ways and to recognize the humanity of their workers. Lloyd describes the difficult conditions that the miners faced, including low wages, long hours, and dangerous working conditions. He also highlights the greed and callousness of the millionaire owners, who were more interested in maximizing profits than in treating their workers fairly. The book is a powerful indictment of the capitalist system and a call to action for social justice. It remains a classic work of labor history and a testament to the importance of workers' rights.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1890 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
