The Education of Everett Richardson
The Nova Scotia Fishermen’s Strike 1970-71
In 1970, Everett Richardson and about 250 other Nova Scotia fishermen went on a 15-month struggle that rent the fabric of the province’s society, gave rise to headlines across the country, and became a rallying point and cause celèbre for Canadian labour. This classic labour struggle was a bitter education in the realities of corporate capitalism. In this rare and moving book, Silver Donald Cameron reveals the way "the system" works and gives a worker’s-eye view of its dehumanizing results, capturing individual dramas and collective heroism. This important story lives because of this book. Still news!
