Socialist Readings for Children

John Spargo (1876 - 1966)

A collection of readings designed more for youngsters aged 12 or older than for children, in my view. The presentation is idealistic and offers a fine view of the socialist messages being provided to the working class in the early decades of the 20th Century. - Summary by KevinS
