- Lowell J. Satre lives in Youngstown, Ohio, and is the author of Thomas Burt, Miners' MP, 1837-1922: The Great Conciliator.
“This is a well-written, marvelously researched, and utterly
fascinating study of an episode in the social, political, economic,
and even religious history of imperial Britain.”
*author of British Quakerism, 1860–1920: The Transformation of a
Religious Community*
“Lowell Satre has written a fascinating book that addresses a
question perennial to modern day commercial economies where complex
chains of supply are at the root of production.... Satre's work is
invaluable for identifying the context of today's problems, the
significance of law, and strategies for mobilization.”
*Law and History Review*
“Satre’s story-telling ability is maintained to the very last
page.... The author handles the impressive breadth of government,
business, journalistic and private primary sources and evidence in
a controlled and balanced way.... Satre deftly exposes the firm in
this nuanced social and political history.”
*Journal of African History*
