Scottish workers decided to bake their own bread, together, and built an institution doing it. This history of the United Co-operative Baking Society traces the dawn of co-operation, the co-operative bakeries, and societies from Stirlingshire to Fife and the north. Bread as a movement, chronicled from the inside. Watch solidarity rise like dough.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
