Torrent description

Howard # Zinn takes us back a century to a newly industrialized America, the time of robber barons & tycoons, of tenements bursting with immigrants, of dramatic and often violent labour struggles like Haymarket & Homestead # .

Zinn's cast includes Cornelius Vanderbilt and Andrew Carnegie, the young J. Edgar Hoover, Oliver Wendell Holmes # and George Bernard Shaw. But his focus, as ever, is on the organisers and agitators in the labouring and immigrant communities, a cast as colourfull as any novel # , like Ben Reitman, the king of the hobos, and Alexander Berkman, author # of Prison Memoirs # of an Anarchist; Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, anarchist organisers whose arrest, conviction and execution on trumped-up murder charges produced storms # of protest around the world, and Emma Goldman, feminist, anarchist, propagandist extraordinaire for free love and against capitalist exploitation, for direct action and against oppression
