Organize! The Great Lumber Strike of Humboldt County 1935

With the return of material lost for decades, the story of a nearly forgotten Northern California lumber strike is told with immediacy, drama, passion, humor, and relevance to events happening today. The 1935 strike, in which three workers were killed, cast a long shadow over Humboldt County in Northern California. First-person narratives, excerpts from letters and strike bulletins, period photographs, and even a fascinating detour through 1960’s San Francisco, make this colorful chapter of American labor history compelling reading.
