This is a fine anthology of anarchist writings covering a period when many people declared that anarchism went away after the anarchists defeat in Spain. International in scope, Graham includes a wide range of texts, the majority of which cover changes in anarchist thought during the period. Each piece has a brief introduction which gives important background information on the individual or group who wrote the text. I look forward to checking out other volumes in the series.
