Socialism

George O. Adams was a carpenter interested in the political issues of the day, and he gathered together the radical literature that makes up this collection. The collection (1899-1962) consists of many types of printed material including pamphlets, broadsides, articles from newspapers, magazines, and other publications about labor and unions, religion, socialism, economics, and anarchism, among other topics.

Born in 1888, Dorothy Cecilia Cressman (nee Loch) was involved with democratic socialist politics and research in Great Britain in the early twentieth century. This collection contains material from her time working with the Fabian Society, the Labour Research Department, and the British Sociological Society, and includes such records as minutes, newsletters, publications, reports, and memos.

Peter Steele (1918 - ) was a political and industrial writer who supported conservative causes and wrote against socialism and left-wing politics. The collection contains correspondence, writings, speeches, Associated Industries of Missouri (A.I.M.) files, General Electric reports, Group Research Reports, Inc. files, Communications Research Reports, research lists, and cassette tape recordings by Steele.
