Acquiant yourself with the unique character of New England, and the events, people and landscape that has shaped the region's history. Sacco and Vanzetti are still remembered in Massachusetts; a fish-peddlar and shoemaker, they were Italian immigrants who believed in anarchy for the working man. But when a factory paymaster and guard in Braintree, MA were murdered, they found themselves in the middle of a national struggle. Defended by those who believed they were framed and sentenced based on convictions and anti-labor sentiment, both went to their deaths with a 'vive l'anarchie'. 86 pages, softcover. |
