19011202London: Liberty and Property Defence League ca. 1901-05. First Edition. <br /><br />Unbound pamphlet 8 x 5 1/4 inches 205 x 132 mm 4 pages.<br /><br />A wonderfully lurid warning against socialism by a British organization devoted to laissez-faire economics. The anonymous author suggests that socialism would lead to the breakup of families.<br /><br />"There would be no such place as home under socialism" the author writes. "Everyone would live in the State barracks. There would be no breakfasts dinners or teas with one's family at one's own table as in the first place meals in private would not be permitted as it would be against the socialist idea of equality.In other words everybody when hungry would be reduced to the necessity of repairing to the common swine-trough and eating the hogwash the State had placed therein. No roast beef turkey and plum pudding no smiling faces of children and friends around the table on Christmas Day. Indeed there would not be any Christmas Day under socialism." <br /><br />This pamphlet carries no publication date but it appears to have been issued sometime between 1901 and 1905. It refers to "the late Mr. Oscar Wilde" who died in late 1900. In 1906 the Liberty and Property Defence League issued a book "Socialism: Its Fallacies and Dangers" which included the text of this pamphlet. <br /><br />OCLC lists 7 institutional holdings: Syracuse Stanford Amherst Harvard Michigan Texas and Wisconsin Historical Society.
