Frank Little and the IWW
The Blood That Stained an American Family
Having scoured the West for firsthand sources in family, library, and museum collections, Jane Botkin melds the narrative of an American family with the story of labor movements that once shook the nation to its core. She throws into sharp relief the lingering consequences of political repression. The writing has a cadence and flow, making it easy to read and hard to put down. It is the best analysis of one of American Labor’s most interesting, complicated, and important characters.
