Description
Like Che cosa è l’I.W.W.?, this work and L'I.W.W. nella teoria e nella pratica of Justus Ebert three years later, in Chicago, q.v., are translations from English-language originals, intended to reach an Italian-language-only audience of workers who could help swell the ranks of the Wobblies.
Vincent St. John, like Bill Haywood and Frank Little, was trained in the hard school of the Western Federation of Miners, a kind of model labor union that was prominent in that era in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. A metal miner by trade, St. John joined the Western Federation in 1894, and soon became an influential voice in its councils. He remained a member of the board of the that union until 1907.
