Little 'Red Scares'
Author : Professor Robert Justin Goldstein
Publisher : Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.

ISBN : 1409410919
Book Description
Anti-communism has long been a potent force in American politics, capable of gripping both government and popular attention. Nowhere is this more evident that the two great 'red scares' of 1919-20 and 1946-54; the latter generally - if somewhat inaccurately - termed McCarthyism. By focusing on the interim period between the two major 'red scares', this volume makes clear that the lingering effects of 1919-20 and the gathering storm-clouds of 'McCarthyism' were clearly visible throughout the 20s and 30s. In so doing the rationale and motivations for the 'red scares' are contexualised as part of an evolving political narrative, rather than as isolated bouts of hysteria exploding onto - and then vanishing from - the political landscape.

A Terrible Anger
Author : David F. Selvin
Publisher : Wayne State University Press
Page : 288 pages
File Size : 20,48 MB
Release : 1996
Category : Business & Economics
ISBN : 9780814326107
Book Description
In A Terrible Anger, David F. Selvin presents a narrative history of the strikes. Unlike other labor historians who have stressed the importance of radical groups involved in the strikes, he addresses the impact on unions, owners, government, and the daily press. A witness to the strikes, Selvin has written a compelling story of the traumas and triumphs which acted as catalysts for the tumultuous labor battles of the mid-1930s.
San Francisco - A History of the Pacific Coast Metropolis, Vol. 2
Author : John Philip Young
Publisher : Jazzybee Verlag

Release :
Category : History
ISBN : 3849678121
Book Description
Although the period of active life of San Francisco has been a short one, as historical periods go, it has been crowded with incident. Enough of the latter could be found to present a vivid picture of the career of the metropolis of the Pacific coast, but in this work something more has been attempted than a mere recital of occurrences. It has been the purpose of the author to trace the causes of the growth of the City, and to describe the manifold activities of its citizens. This is volume two out of two of one of the most thrilling and detailed histories of San Francisco.
The 1916 Preparedness Day Bombing
Author : Jeffrey A. Johnson
Publisher : Routledge
Page : 307 pages
File Size : 45,20 MB
Release : 2017-08-15
Category : History
ISBN : 131720400X
Book Description
This book places the 1916 San Francisco Preparedness Day Bombing within the broader context of American radicalism and isolationism during the Progressive Era. A concise narrative and key primary documents offer readers an introduction to this episode of domestic violence and the subsequent, sensationalized trial that followed. The dubious conviction of a local labor organizer raised serious questions about political extremism, pluralistic ideals, and liberty in the United States that continue to resonate in the twenty-first century.
