Franklin Henry Little (1878-1917) fought in some of the early twentieth century's most contentious labour and free-speech struggles. Following his lynching in Butte, Montana, his life and legacy became shrouded in tragedy and secrets. Jane Little Botkin chronicles her great-granduncle's fascinating life.

Trade Review
This beautifully written account is also family history at its best. This book deserves to be read as much for its creative methodology as for its fascinating narrative. Insightful and highly recommended."" - Carlos A. Schwantes, author of Radical Heritage: Labor, Socialism and Reform

""Botkin explores the life of Frank Little, a prominent member of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) during its radical effort to organize laborers in the early 20th century. . . compelling and informative, even for those unfamiliar with the IWW and labor struggles of the time."" - Library Journal

""Both a work of history and biography. . .Little's is, above all else, a human story about a man who fought for justice and fair treatment for workers, and paid the ultimate price for that fight."" - Foreword Reviews
