Product Information
Let the people take heart and hope everywhere, for the cross is bending, the midnight is passing, and joy cometh with the morning.-Eugene Debs in 1918 Orator, organizer, self-taught scholar, presidential candidate, and prisoner, Eugene Debs' lifelong commitment to the fight for a better world is chronicled in this unparalleled biography by historian Ray Ginger. This moving story presents the definitive account of the life and legacy of the most eloquent spokesperson and leader of the U.S. labor and socialist movements. With a new introduction by Mike Davis. The best biography of Eugene Debs yet published....A valuable contribution to the history of American political and economic radicalism. -American Historical Review Masterful. -Michael Harrington The Bending Cross offers us an old-fashioned-and, yes, incorrigibly romantic-ethos for activism; an antidote to jaded postmodernist cynicism, made compelling and coherent by the example of Debs's own life. It is ironic that the Socialist leader was imprisoned for 'disloyalty,' since what most distinguished Debs was his moral steadfastness and unbreakable loyalty to the labor movement. -Mike Davis, from the IntroductionProduct Identifiers

The brutality visited on American Socialists and Communists, is a thing people need to start reading about!
Another American book, this one arrived much quicker than the others! The book was in very good condition as advertised -- yes! well pleased. It's not easy to access the mainstream in the USA, and has proved to be virtually impossible for Socialists and Communists. What happened to these Men and Women from 1900 -1950's, is a disgrace to a Country that considers itself free and democratic. When I look at the USA, the one thing I don't see is freedom, let alone democracy. Yes! 'The Bending Cross' is a reminder of very dark times in America. Yeah! recommended reading --- without doubt.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
