Summary

This appears to be a book review draft on Everett Dean Martin's The Behavior of Crowds, which brings a Freudian analysis to crowd behavior and propaganda. An interesting thing to note; Davis mentions having to "talk down" a mob of 2,000 striking miners bent on violence.

The primary downloadable document contains the original document followed by the transcription. The bottom of each item page also features the primary document as an embedded pdf for browsing.

Transcription by Davis Baird. Item description based off writing and context provided by Davis Baird.
