Review:
"will become the standard work on Canada's epic strike." Canadian Forum. "Bercuson has been able to flesh out much of the early background ... and to provide insights into developments on the employers' side of the struggle." Calgary Herald. "an important addition to the literature ... helps to explain why a general strike broke out in Winnipeg rather than elsewhere." This Magazine. "Bercuson's perceptive and provocative study is the best yet." Canadian Historical Review.
