Documentary History Of Communism PDF Download

This is the second in an eight-volume documentary history of the Communist Party of the United States of America. This landmark collection by a noted authority on the American Left is the result of forty years of searching for pamphlets, proclamations, manifestos, party reports and minutes of meetings in bookstores and archives all over the country. Facsimilies of the originals are presented whenever possible. Brief introductions and critical notes and explanations about the documents are provided with each of these rare and hard-to-find materials. Volume II begins with a short introduction describing the documentary history and pointing to important sources of information about the Communist Party of the United States. Documents are arranged chronologically and cover a period of toil and trouble from 1928 to 1933. The documents include speeches, resolution, and various reports and discussions about timely issues and attitudes current in the party then, on race, German Fascism, and the church.
