The Autocratically Flexible Workplace: A History o f Overtime Regulation in the United States complements, but does not supersede, the author's “Moments Are the Elements o f P r o fitO v e r tim e and the Deregulation o f Working Hours Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (2000). The two books differ in four major respects. First, chapters 2, 3, and 4 of the earlier book, which deal with specialized aspects of the FLSA (the exclusion from an entitlement to premium overtime compensation of executive employees, of workers engaged in so-called preliminary and post-liminary work activities as a result of the Portal-to-Portal Act of 1947, and of employees of small firms) and comprise about two-thirds of that book, have been entirely omitted.

As settlers expanded westward, Georgia forcibly removed Native Americans from the boundaries of what would eventually form Catoosa, a Cherokee name that the settlers adopted as their own. As the site of the second most costly battle in the Civil War, Chickamauga set the stage for much that followedin Catoosa's history, from the end of a three-thousand-year-old mode of warfare to the beginnings of women's service in the military.
