Written when George W. Bush was president, when many considered the U.S. to be one reactionary bloc, devoid of class struggle. Woods' aim was to dispel these misconceptions and draw on the marvellous traditions of struggle throughout U.S. history. Providing one example after another, he shows how the ideas of socialism and have deep roots in the American tradition itself.
The American people and above all the American working class have a great revolutionary tradition. They are destined to rediscover these traditions and to stand once more in the front line of the revolution as in 1776 and 1861. The expanded second edition includes appendices on the 1934 Minneapolis Teamsters strike, the early history of the Socialist Party, Shays's Rebellion, and Engels on the need for a labor party.
