Written in 1908, Iron Heel is a sharp social commentary. Jack London's
chillingly realistic novel prophesies the fall of the United States to the
totalitarian dictatorship of a group of capitalists called "The Iron Heel."
The struggle of the working class as they revolt anticipates the political
upheaval of the 1930s.

That was the first book outside of school and Enid blyton that I read. I recommend it. It leaves a lasting impression of the coldness of fascism.
