Bøker av Robert F. Burk

Baseball is both a sport and a business in the United States. Here, Robert Burk traces the turbulent labour history of American baseball since 1921. The accessible account describes the many battles between owners and players that irrevocably altered the business of baseball.

The du Ponts, one of the most powerful families in American industry, actively fought policies that gave government more power over the economy. By focusing on one family's contribution to the economic and political debate between the world wars, Burk casts light on the changing fortunes of business and government in twentieth-century America.
