He concludes by underscoring the IWW's enduring message of solidarity and the ongoing struggle for workers' rights and economic justice. "I.W.W. - Its History, Structure, and Method" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of labor movements, radical politics, and the fight for social change.Book Details
