From 1917 the US Department of Justice systematically targeted the US's most radical union, the Industrial Workers of the World, resulting in the largest mass trial in US history. In the first legal history of the trial, Dean Strang shows how the case laid the groundwork for a fundamentally different strategy to stifle radical threats.
