Comrade : Bill Andersen : A Communist, Working-class Life
Paperback Edition: 1
Bill Andersen was one of the most significant figures in New Zealand's trade union movement in the later twentieth century. Cyble Locke's biography recovers the relationships between communism and working-class trade unionism during World War Two and the following decades. Starting with Bill's experiences as a merchant seaman during World War Two, Locke draws on over forty oral interviews, as well as Bill's unpublished autobiography, to explore what it meant to be a workingclass, communist trade unionist through those years.
