"Work is the best of narcotics, providing the patient be strong enough to take it. I dread idleness as if it were Hell." -Beatrice Webb, My Apprenticeship The History of Trade Unionism (1919), by Sidney and Beatrice Webb, is a detailed account of the roots and development of the British trade union movement.
