The Land of Plenty

By Robert Cantwell

Book Overview

A labor strike at a lumber mill divides a town based on the author's hometown of Aberdeen, Washington. The Land of Plenty portrays the blue-collar workers' struggle for existence and depicts, with sensitivity and compassion, workers and owners alike in their poverty, depravity, and their ultimate goodness. The Land of Plenty created a political firestorm when it was published to great success in 1935. Long out-of-print it remains one of the most graphically exciting novels of the Thirties, a lost American classic.
