Contains the full text of various communist American and British newspapers.

"Workers' rights, social issues, national and international politics, culture and Party activity are just some of the topics to be explored on the pages of these Communist Party newspapers, featuring such notable contributors as writer Richard Wright, folk singer Woody Guthrie and political cartoonist Robert Minor. ... While much of the content in these newspapers focuses on workers' rights and organized labor (a boon to scholars in these fields), other articles and ads reveal a glimpse of the people who made up the Communist Party. Reviews of books and performances, invitations to social events, analysis of international news and events from a decidedly left-wing perspective make Communist Historical Newspapers a unique resource across the curriculum."--ProQuest promotional handout.
