'In doing what is normal for any trade union activist today - recruiting, arguing and organising - my comrades and I were made to suffer persecution, imprisonment and death'
This inspiring memoir tells how young Japanese print and publishing workers maintained links and sustained organisation between workers during the height of Japanese military aggression before and during World War II. It destroys the myth that all Japanese people supported the war, and provides a thrilling account of worker organising in conditions of repression that has lessons for up-and-coming unionists of today.
