"At the end of WWI Canada was poised on the brink of social revolution. At least that is what many Canadians, inspired by the success of the Russian Revolution in 1917, hoped and others dreaded. This book tells the story of this turbulent period when a fearful government tried to suppress radical political activity by branding legitimate labour leaders as 'Bolsheviks' and 'Reds.' The story builds toward the events of the Winnipeg General Strike, when the authorities, believing that the expected revolution had begun, sent soldiers into the streets to put down with force a legitimate labour dispute." - dust jacket. 280 p. Footnotes. Index. Black and white reproductions of photos. Clean, bright, tight and unmarked with very light wear. An excellent signed example. ; 8vo; Signed by Author.
