About This Item
Westport, CT, U.S.A.: Greenwood Press, 1968. Reprint. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. First published in 1952, this is one of the first studies of the American socialist movement during the period when it was at the height of its activity, from 1897-1912; it is a study of the American Socialist Party, from its origins in the Socialist Labor Party to the divisive national convention of 1912, both as a political party and as a social movement, and it attempts to discover the reasons for its limited success and ultimate failure, despite the fact that it had over 150,000 members, published hundreds of newspapers, won nearly a million votes for its presidential candidate in 1912, elected more than 1,000 of its members to political office, and secured passage of considerable legislation; (reddish brown cloth with black lettering, creased at top of spine; otherwise a bright, clean, tight copy)
