The History of May Day

This short work by the founder of International Publishers, Alexander Trachtenberg traces the origins and significance of International Workers’ Day (May Day). Written in an easily digestible form, Trachtenberg examines some of the most important milestones of the U.S. labor movement, and dispels the myths of the “docile” American proletariat, instead revealing its long history of militant and combative struggle in incessant fierce battle with the U.S. ruling class.
