The book "Labor's Martyrs: Haymarket 1887, Sacco and Vanzetti 1927" is a tribute to the labor martyrs who fought for workers' rights and were unjustly executed. The book honors the memories of the Haymarket heroes, who were wrongly accused of organizing a bomb explosion in 1886, and Sacco and Vanzetti, two Italian immigrant workers wrongly accused of murder and executed in 1927. Through the stories of these labor martyrs, the book highlights the struggles and injustices faced by workers and labor activists, and emphasizes the importance of continuing to fight against oppression, reaction, bigotry, and fascism. The book also introduces the International Labor Defense, an organization dedicated to preventing legal murders and protecting the victims of oppression. The overall theme of the book is the importance of remembering and honoring the labor martyrs, and inspiring a new generation of workers to continue the fight for socialism, workers' rights, and democracy. The book is written by Vito Marcantonio, with introductions by William Z. Foster, and is made available through the Project Gutenberg eBook.
