The slow burning fuse : the lost history of the British anarchists
John Quail (Author), Constance Bantman, Nick Heath (Writer of supplementary textual content)
Provides an account of the British anarchist movement from its origins in 1880 to its more or less total eclipse around 1930. A history largely obscured and rewritten following 1919 and the triumph of Leninist communism, Quail resurrects the works of the early anarchist clubs, their unsung heroes, political activities, and manifestos so that a truer image of radical dissent and history can be formed. His story of the anarchists is one of utopias created in imagination and half-realized in practice, of individual fights and movements for freedom and self-expression--a story still being written today. --Adapted from publisher description
