Today there are no hints of the Great Upheaval of 1877--the railroad workers strike and its extensive support in cities across the United States. Oriole Park at Camden Yards now stands in the place of the 1877 rebellion in Baltimore. Rick Mercier helps us remember what happened in the summer of 1877.
