| Abstract |
Labor Day is a national holiday that recognizes the important contributions of workers across North America. Celebrated every year on the first Monday of September, people who do all kinds of jobs, from factory work to health care, participate in parades, attend barbecues, and listen to speeches. This book provides a look at the labor movement of the last century, the traditions and symbols of this special day, and how workers are recognized in other parts of the world. |
