註釋This is a reprint of a 1948 book considered as one of two standard works on Canadian farm movements in the early 20th century, the other being Seymour Martin Lipset's "Agrarian socialism" (1950). It explores the history of agrarian insurgency in the prairie provinces from the turn of the century until the 1930s depression, outlining the background of both Alberta's Social Credit and Saskatchewan's Cooperative Commonwealth Federation. It emphasizes the American influences in these early movements, and notes similarities in environment that produced agrarian protests on both sides of the 49th parallel. New introductions to the book examine the author's legacy from a contemporary Canadian and American perspective.
