Hard Ball Press, whose editor is WCSA stalwart Tim Sheard, has published an unusual collection of essays and photography by American union workers of all varieties – musicians, laborers, teachers, journalists, auto workers, nurses, a ballet dancer, a West Virginia coal miner, and filmmaker John Sayles, among many others. Titled We Are One: Stories of work, life, and love, each photo essay examines the author’s workplace, life events and ideas about success. See this and other Hard Ball books here.
