London penned this book while living in Oakland, CA and running for Mayor as a Socialist. In "War of The Classes" he expounds his theories of government and economics which is very important since it is an American's view of a socialist society in the United States. Socialism was a political force on the American scene for decades before and after the turn of the century. Jack London was well known for his political views and this book sums it up. Most likely, this book is his most important out-right 'political book'. Eugene Debs was another important activist and writer from this dynamic period before the Bolshevic Revolution in Russia. A Collector's Edition.
