Book Overview

The Socialist Campaign Book is a political manifesto written by Joseph Medill Patterson in 1908. The book outlines the principles and goals of the Socialist Party of America, which was gaining popularity in the United States at the time. Patterson argues that capitalism is inherently unjust and that socialism is the only way to create a fair and equal society. He advocates for policies such as a progressive income tax, public ownership of utilities and transportation, and the abolition of child labor. The book also includes speeches and articles by prominent socialist leaders, as well as information about the party's platform and candidates.
