About the author

Nicolas Walter (1934-2000) was one of the best-known and mostly widely read anarchist writers of the last half century. His About Anarchism has been translated into many languages, including Russian, Serbo-Croat, Greek, Turkish, Chinese and Japanese. But his immense output was otherwise overwhelmingly journalism for the libertarian press. It is only with The Anarchist Past and Other Essays (Five Leaves, 2007), a virtual history of anarchism reaching from its prehistory in the American Revolution to the work of Murray Bookchin and Colin Ward, and the present volume that libertarians today are enabled to appreciate his range, erudition and readability.
