The bibliography of this period consists chiefly of contemporary sources, many of which are quoted in the Documentary History of American Industrial Society. These contemporary sources may be roughly divided into three classes: the newspaper press, the reform press, and public documents.

The newspaper press, then as now, contained current news items which, taken together, afford a fairly definite picture of the economic conditions of the time and of the labour and reform movements which were initiated for the purpose of chang

ing these conditions. A part of the press, such as the New York Herald, opposed all reforms and reformers and tolerated organisations of the workers themselves only as the lesser of two evils; a much larger part were indifferent chroniclers, without criticism or approval, of the events which happened in industrial life from day to day; and a few, led by the New York Tribune, not only served as open forums for all of the isms of the time, but took an active editorial stand on many of the labour issues which arose during the period.

The reform press was as varied in content as the issues which they advocated. Each new ism was heralded by a paper, a pamphlet, or a book. Like the reforms which they advocated, the papers were short-lived; the series of pamphlets were equally short; and the books serve as monuments or as milestones, according as they were entirely forgotten or helped to influence the public opinion which crystallised into action then or later. The Working Man's Advocate and the Republik der Arbeiter are good examples of reform papers. The Proceedings of the Industrial Congress of any given year illustrate the propagandist pamphlets of the time. Of the reform publications which attained the dignity of books, Albert Brisbane's The Social Destiny of Man, or Association and Reorganisation of Industry (Philadelphia, 1840) and E. Kellogg's Labor and Other Capital; the Rights of Each Secured and the Wrongs of Both Eradicated (New York, 1849) serve as examples.

Public documents referred to in this section consist chiefly of legislative reports such as the New York Assembly Journal for a given year of the Laws of the state in question. A few special documentary reports were consulted, such as the Report of the Committee on Internal Health (Boston City Document, No. 66, 1849).

Trade union records of the period are not numerous and consist mainly of the minutes of the meetings of local organisations. None of these is in separate published form.

Secondary sources consist of biographical publications such as Horace Greeley's Recollections of a Busy Life (New York, 1868); and special historical treatises like Gustavus Myers' History of Tammany Hall (New York, 1901), and Herman

Schlüter's Die Anfänge der deutschen Arbeiterbewegung in Amerika (Stuttgart, 1907). The secondary literature of the period is very limited.
