Wasn't Dashiel a strike breaker, involved in organisted political violence? Any suggestions what to read up on the history around his writings would be much appreciated. Thanks

Hammett, according to Wikipedia, joined the Communist Party in 1937. Communists are more likely to organize a strike than they are to be strike-breakers. If you have a source for this activity, would love to see it.

he actually was involved in strike breaking while working for the pinkerton agency. It kind of gave him the base outline for his story red harvest. i also think these events in Butte, Montana formed his later political outlook. here is a citation from the washington post about the toppic: The story goes that in 1917, Dashiell Hammett was offered $5,000 by an officer of the Anaconda Copper Mining Company to kill labor union organizer Frank Little, who had come to Butte, Mont., to stir up striking miners. Hammett, who was working for the Pinkerton Detective Agency as a strikebreaker, declined the offer. Little was killed, and it was believed that other Pinkertons may have been behind his lynching. Despite it all, Hammett stuck with the Pinkerton job.@@philrufkahr1515

I had read that he became a communist out of moral disgust over strike-breaking activity that he had been involved in with the Pinkertons. I don't have a citation.
