Red Dawn - The Bolsheviki & the I.W.W.

A classic reprint from 1918 giving the history of the Bolsheviks & I.W.W. Today, locked behind several sets of steel bars in one of those dungeons Capitalism has prepared for workers who challenge its rule, the writer watches the play of social forces in the greatest of crises ever yet facing this stage of civilization. Someone has said that the people of any given period do not grasp the significance of events transpiring under their eyes; that events are only historically understood as they move into the past and afford perspective. It may be that my interested isolation, my severance from active participation in the great; drama, affords such perspective. But, be that as it may, the writer feels constrained to point out what, in his opinion, is the lesson to the workers contained in recent and current history - what means that inspiring light that penetrates even the prison windows and floods my cell with the glory of the Red Dawn?
