Books by Christopher H. Johnson

It was Maurice Sugar, labour activist and lawyer for the United Auto Workers, who played a key role in guiding the newly-formed union through the treacherous legal terrain obstructing its development in the 1930s. Christopher Johnson chronicles the life of Maurice Sugar, from his roots in Michigan's Upper Peninsula to the struggles of the early 1930s.

Becoming Bourgeois traces the fortunes of three French families in the municipality of Vannes, in Brittany-Galles, Jollivet, and Le Ridant-who rose to prominence in publishing, law, the military, public administration, and intellectual pursuits over the course of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
