""The Big Strike at Siwash"" is a novel written by George Fitch that tells the story of a labor strike that occurs at a fictional university called Siwash. The story follows the main character, Johnnie Watson, who is a student at Siwash and becomes involved in the strike as he tries to balance his loyalty to his fellow students and his desire to graduate. The strike is led by a charismatic leader named Bill Henderson, who is trying to improve the working conditions for the university's staff. However, the strike quickly becomes violent and the students are forced to choose sides. The novel explores themes of social justice, loyalty, and the power of collective action. It is a classic tale of a struggle between the working class and the ruling class, and the sacrifices that individuals make in order to fight for what they believe in.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
