Omschrijving

The Chicago Martyrs is a book that features the famous speeches of eight anarchists who were on trial in Judge Gary's court in October 1886. The book is compiled and edited by John Peter Altgeld, a former governor of Illinois who was known for his progressive views. The speeches were delivered by the anarchists during their trial, which was a result of the Haymarket Riot that occurred in Chicago on May 4, 1886. The riot was a protest against the police brutality that workers faced during a strike for an eight-hour workday. The anarchists were accused of inciting the riot and were sentenced to death. The book provides a detailed account of the trial and the speeches that were delivered by the anarchists. It also includes an introduction by Altgeld, where he discusses the political and social context of the trial and the significance of the speeches. The Chicago Martyrs is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the labor movement and the struggle for workers' rights in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
