Today In Labor History March 27, 1912: Start of the 8-month Northern railway strike in Canada by the IWW. Over 8,000 construction workers walked off the job at Northern Railway workcamps Wobblies picketed employment offices in Vancouver, Seattle, San Francisco, Tacoma and Minneapolis in order to block the hiring of scabs.

Fellow workers pay attention to what I'm going to mention,
For it is the fixed intention of the Workers of the World.
And I hope you'll all be ready, true-hearted, brave and steady,
To gather 'round our standard when the red flag is unfurled.

CHORUS:
Where the Fraser River flows, each fellow worker knows,
They have bullied and oppressed us, but still our union grows.
And we're going to find a way, boys, for shorter hours and better pay, boys
And we're going to win the day, boys, where the river Fraser flows.

For these gunny-sack contractors have all been dirty actors,
And they're not our benefactors, each fellow worker knows.
So we've got to stick together in fine or dirty weather,
And we will show no white feather, where the Fraser river flows.
Now the boss the law is stretching, bulls and pimps he's fetching,
And they are a fine collection, as Jesus only knows.
But why their mothers reared them, and why the devil spared them,
Are questions we can't answer, where the Fraser River flows.

(Lyrics by Joe Hill, 1912, to the tune of “Where the River Shannon Flows.”)

My first five-star read of the year came early 😅
I was a bit hesitant at first because the book was almost 1,000 pages long, but I quickly got over it.
It started off slow, but then it got really detailed and kept me hooked. I was always finding time to read, even during my breaks.

Joe Hill's suspense and vivid storytelling had me hooked until the very end.
The characters were flawed, and I loved some of them, but definitely not all of them. They were all surprising in their own ways. And what about King Sorrow? It's a real game-changer: it's got a dark, sharp, and unforgettable vibe.
I highly recommend the book.
Full review on my blog!

Do long books scare you, or do you love getting lost in a big story?
