Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Mechanic and Working-Man, Vol. 1 of 2 To the great surprise of the writer, the books met with a ready sale, and the earlier one, at least, passed through three editions. It is no more than justice to say, that they owed much of their favour with the public to the valuable journal in 'which they at first appeared, and to its editor, Mr. William B. Kinney. That they never became part of the current of literature, is not to be wonder.ed at: it is believed that they were not lost upon those for whom they were intended.

Excerpt: ...of their daily toils creates the want of just such relaxation and refreshment as have been indicated. And let it be remembered that in our country even the poor man should cultivate his taste, because every poor man may look forward to the time when he shall be rich. Let him educate his faculties, that his ignorance may not some day disgrace his wealth. It is common to sneer at the mechanic, and to consider the youth who becomes an apprentice as degraded. This is very short-sighted. I know no class of society whom success makes so truly independent, or who in the decline of life have so much leisure as mechanics. Compare them, in this respect, with professional men. The lawyer or the physician, however wealthy he may become, finds still increasing labours; the more riches, the more toil. Unless he relinquishes his business altogether, he must do the work himself. He cannot send his foreman to plead a cause, or to set a leg; nor can he, like the rich mechanic, sit in his parlour or his arbour, and know that all his great concerns are well conducted by proxy. Working-men should look to this, and from the time when they first enter a habitation of their own, should cultivate the delights of domestic ornament. Among these ornaments, the highest rank is due to Gardening; including in that term the rearing of valuable trees. Children should be early taught that when they set out a fine tree, or insert a graft, they are doing a favour to posterity, and beginning that which shall continue to make others happy when they are in their graves. It has always been pleasant to me to see the house of the industrious citizen embowered in flowering vines and trees. And on Saturday evening, a season when so many forsake their work only for the porter-house...

Download or read book America s Working Man written by David Halle and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-12-10 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An unusually deep and wide-ranging study” by a sociologist who spent years listening to and living among workers at a New Jersey chemical plant (Journal of American Studies). Over a period of six years during the late 1970s, at factory and warehouse, at the tavern across the road, in their homes and union meetings, on fishing trips and social outings, David Halle talked and listened to workers of an automated chemical plant in New Jersey’s industrial heartland—white, male, and mostly Catholic. He has emerged with an unusually comprehensive and convincingly realistic picture of blue-collar life in America during this era. Throughout the book, Halle illustrates his analysis with excerpts of workers’ views on everything from strikes, class consciousness, politics, job security, and toxic chemicals to marriage, betting on horses, God, home-ownership, drinking, adultery, the Super Bowl, and life after death. Halle challenges the stereotypes of the blue-collar mentality and provides a detailed, in-depth portrait of one community of workers at a time when it was relatively affluent and secure. “Absorbing reading.”—Business Week
