Colonial Era

By Herbert Aptheker

"No Power Greater" is a biography of George A. Meyers, president of the Maryland, D.C. Congress of Industrial Organizations, Communist Party leader, and victim of the anti-communist red scare. Meyers helped organized 12,000 textile workers in Cumberland, Maryland. He was elected President of the Maryland-D.C.C.I.O. He was framed on trumped up charges of conspiring to overthrow the U.S. government by "force and violence." He spent nearly four years in prison. Freed, he dedicated his life to building the labor movement. Part biography, part organizing manual, this book is a must read for activists today struggling to organize Starbucks and Amazon.
