James P. Cannon and the Emergence of Trotskyism in the United States, 1928-38

In James P. Cannon and the Emergence of Trotskyism in the United States, 1928-38 Bryan D. Palmer provides a deeply-researched and elegantly-written account of a revolutionary movement that recasts understandings of working-class militancy and the Comintern-affiliated communists so often depicted as a decisive force in 1930s radicalism.
