Social Facts And Forces: The Factory, The Labor Union, The Corporation, The Railway, The City, And The Church (1897) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781165002870)

""Social Facts and Forces"" is a comprehensive examination of the major institutions that shaped American society in the late 19th century. Written by prominent social reformer and theologian Washington Gladden, the book explores the impact of the factory, the labor union, the corporation, the railway, the city, and the church on the lives of everyday Americans. Gladden argues that these institutions have both positive and negative effects on society, and that their interactions shape the course of history. He examines issues such as labor rights, urbanization, and the role of religion in social change, offering insightful commentary on the challenges facing America at the turn of the century. With its thoughtful analysis and compelling writing, ""Social Facts and Forces"" remains an important work of social criticism and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
