General
Harry "Haywire Mac" McClintock (1882 - 1957) led an incredibly varied life. In addition to serving the military as a civilian in the Philippines during the Spanish-American War, he was a railroad worker, cowboy, stevedore, union organizer with the "wobblies" (Industrial Workers of the World), radio entertainer, composer, recording artist beginning in the 1920's, etc. Sam Eskin, folksinger and folk song collector of renown, made these recordings of "Haywire Mac," in 1953. Preceding most of the songs and anecdotes, Sam discusses with Haywire Mac the background of each recorded item. Liner notes provide biographical information for both "Haywire Mac" and Sam Eskin.
