The Frontier Wage: The Economic Organization of Free Agents (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781258083632)

The Frontier Wage: The Economic Organization Of Free Agents is a book written by Bernard W. Dempsey. The book explores the concept of free agents in the context of the American frontier. Free agents were individuals who worked independently, without the constraints of a formal employment contract. The book examines the economic organization of these free agents, including their wages, working conditions, and bargaining power. The author argues that free agents played a significant role in the development of the American economy, particularly in the West, where they were essential to the growth of industries such as mining, ranching, and agriculture. The book draws on historical research, economic theory, and case studies to provide a comprehensive analysis of the frontier wage and its impact on the American economy. Overall, The Frontier Wage is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the American frontier, labor economics, and the role of free agents in economic development.With The Text Of The Second Part Of The Isolated State By Johann Heinrich Von Thunen.
