Eugene T. Kingsley led an extraordinary life: he was once described
as "one of the most dangerous men in Canada." In 1890, Kingsley was
working as a railway brakeman in Montana when an accident left him
a double amputee, and politically radicalized. Ravi Malhotra and
Benjamin Isitt trace Kingsley's political journey from soapbox
speaker in San Francisco to prominence in the Socialist Party of
Canada. They examine Kingsley's endeavours for justice against the
Northern Pacific Railway, and how his life intersected with
immigration law and free-speech rights. Able to Lead highlights
Kingsley's profound legacy for the twenty-first-century political
left.
