One of the features of this new blog will be recommendations of books that Progressives may find educational and inspirational.
This week's book is :
Unreasonable Men by Michael Wolraich
This book chronicles the time when the Republican Party had a strong Progressive Element and sponsored reforms in the work place and environment. This was the period of President Theodore Roosevelt's Square Deal (his cousin F.D.R. would coin the sequel New Deal and President Truman's program would be known as the Fair Deal). The book also describes the divisions in the movement between Roosevelt and Progressive Heroes unfortunately mostly forgotten in mainstream circles today like Governor/Senator Robert La Follette and how the Republican Party split in the 1912 election with Former President Roosevelt forming what became known as the Bull Moose Party. A must read.
