Book Reviews of IWW Songs - To Fan The Flames Of Discontent: A Reprint Of The Nineteenth Edition (1923) Of The Famous "Little Red Song Book"
Book Review: a labor classic
Summary: 5 Stars
It is easy to see why this book has been around for decades- it is a classic collection of labor songs, many of which are as relevant now as they were in the early days of the wobblies. Some parody, some original, all are written with a passion that shines through even in printed form.
