Child Labor Legislation in the Southern Textile States

This book is a study of the slow growth of the movement for reform, the basis of opposition, the gradual success that was achieved, and the close relationship between the regulation of child labor and the development of public education in the South ― the two movements necessarily accompanying and supplementing each other.

Originally published in 1939.
