	Eugene V. Debs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eugene Victor Debs (November 5, 1855 – October 20, 1926) was an American labor and political leader and five-time Socialist Party of America candidate for President of the United States.
		Debs tried to persuade the ARU members who worked on the railways that the boycott was too risky, given the hostility of both the railways and the federal government, the weakness of the ARU, and the possibility that other unions would break the strike.
		Debs was, however, largely dismissive of the electoral process: he distrusted the political bargains that Victor Berger and other "sewer socialists" had made in winning local offices and put much more value on the organization of workers, particularly on industrial lines.

		She thinks it immensely significant, for instance, that Lincoln's son became a lawyer for Pullman, Debs's foe, and that Pinkerton, the detective whose name was synonymous with antilabor espionage, was a teen-age labor agitator in Glasgow.
		Debs has been the subject of several biographies, most recently Nick Salvatore's meticulous 1982 account, ''Eugene V. Debs: Citizen and Socialist.'' ''Harp Song'' is less a biography than a novel of a lugubriously allegorical sort, steeped in religious imagery.
		Young praises Debs for refusing, in his years as a city councilman, to fine the town's prostitutes: ''the poor Magdalenes of the streets -- had not Christ associated with them?'' Debs's knowledge of les demoiselles de Terre Haute was, indeed, biblical, but not in the sense Young supposes.

		It is being offered to the public as a biography of Debs, which is a disservice to all parties involved, especially the reader, who will face difficulties enough as it is. Roughly half the text consists of a footloose and somewhat fanciful account of radicalism in the United States during the 19th Century.
		The rest is focused on Debs in particular -- though "focused" may not be quite the word, since Young is a keen one for the woolly digression.
		The narrative stops short of the crucial moment in 1894 when labor organizer Debs was imprisoned during the Pullman railway strike.
