About This Book

A detailed biography traces the subject's formative years and public activity, followed by a broad selection of essays, poems, and speeches that lay out arguments for socialism, critiques of the wage system, and strategies for labor organization. Topics range from personal conversion to socialist ideas and analyses of craft, industrial, and revolutionary unionism to responses to government injunctions and the conduct of strikes. Several pieces address prison labor and civil liberties. Appraisals and appreciations by contemporaries, reproductions of photographs and illustrations, and editorial notes contextualize the movement and its rhetoric for sympathetic readers.
