The book explores the life of James Keir Hardie, a pivotal figure in the founding of the British Labour Party, who viewed Socialism as a modern expression of Christianity. Hardie's early experiences with poverty fueled his commitment to justice, drawing inspiration from diverse thinkers like Jesus, Robert Burns, and Karl Marx. Central to his philosophy is the belief in the sanctity of human solidarity. The study emphasizes the connection between labour history and religious beliefs, highlighting the spiritual dimensions of Hardie's activism.
