''Essays In Rebellion'' is a collection of essays written by Henry W. Nevinson, a British journalist and social activist who was known for his outspoken views on political and social issues of his time. The book was first published in 1913 and contains a series of essays that cover a wide range of topics, including the suffrage movement, the labor movement, imperialism, and war.In these essays, Nevinson provides a critical analysis of the political and social structures of his time and offers a call to action for individuals to rebel against these structures in order to bring about change. He argues that the status quo is unacceptable and that individuals must stand up for their rights and fight against oppression and injustice.Throughout the book, Nevinson draws on his own experiences as a journalist and social activist to provide insight into the struggles faced by those who are fighting for change. He also provides historical context to help readers understand the roots of these struggles and the challenges that lie ahead.Overall, ''Essays In Rebellion'' is a thought-provoking and inspiring collection of essays that encourages readers to question the status quo and take action to bring about change. It is a must-read for anyone interested in social justice, activism, and political reform.So they cried, echoing the voice of noble ghosts. But where in the scenes of present life around them have they hailed that torn but flying banner? What have they said or done for freedom’s emblem in Persia, or in Morocco, or in Turkey? What support have they given it in Finland, or in the Caucasus, or in the Baltic Provinces? To come within our own sphere, what ecstatic rhapsodies have they composed to greet the rising nationalism of Ireland, or of India, or of Egypt? Or, in this country herself, what movement of men or of women striving to be free have they welcomed with their paeans of joy?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
