"The real life story of a people filled with idealism and controversy, and with age, so maligned that many who have lived the times have kept silent. Looking back, the events of the 1920s and '30s are finally put into historical context. The entire socialist element of the Finnish population in North America was in the process of a political upheaval. The Russian Revolution and the Civil War in Finland were, like sparks in wind, catalysts to a prairie fire, and the course of political idealism and action was shaped for the next twenty years." - back cover.

In 8, pp. (4) + 246 + (2). Lievi puntinature d'umido alle prime 2 cc., per il resto ottimo esemplare. Tagli spruzzati. M. pl. coeva. Terza edizione ma prima in questa versione (novembre '33). L'incalzare degli avvenimenti successivi alla rivoluzione di luglio rese quest'opera un 'istant book', con integrazioni e modifiche nelle varie edizioni pubblicate tra il '32 e il '34. Nell'analisi dei fatti a lui contemporanei, Cabet si rifa' a molti degli avvenimenti legati alle varie fasi della rivoluzione francese. Cabet, che aveva partecipato attivamente alla rivolta del luglio 1830, per fuggire al clima reazionario della Francia di Luigi Filippo, si trasferi' presto in Inghilterra, dove entro' in contatto con le teorie comuniste e in particolare con Owen. Nel 1840, rientrato in Francia publico' la sua opera utopistica piu' importante, Voyage en Icarie, grazie alla quale si guadagno' la fama di apostolo di un comunismo pacifico e filantropico, ispirato in parte al comunismo egualitario di Babeuf e alle teorie dei riformatori illuministi del Settecento. Da notare che nel 1848 un primo gruppo di seguaci di Cabet si trasferira' negli Stati Uniti dove tentera' di realizzare la citta' ideale proposta nel Voyage en Icarie. L'esperimento sopravvisse a Cabet (che mori' nel 1856) e ando' avanti attraverso scissioni, spostamenti e fasi alterne sino al 1895, quando la comunita' si sciolse e i beni' vennero divisi. Cfr. Bravo, Le origini del socialismo contemporaneo, p. 48 e segg.
