In a clear conversation with the reader, Berkman discusses
society as it now exists, the need for Anarchism and the methods
for bringing it about. Often mentioned in conjunction with his
lover Emma Goldman, Berkman was a leading writer and participant in
the 20th-Century Anarchist movement.
The young, idealistic Berkman practiced "propaganda by the
deed," attempting to assassinate Henry Clay Frick during the
Homestead Steel Strike of 1892. While imprisoned, he wrote the
classic tale of prison life, "Prison Memoirs of an Anarchist."
After his release, Berkman edited "The Blast " and Goldman's
"Mother Earth." Deported to Russia in 1919, he saw firsthand the
failure of the Bolshevik revolution and dedicated himself to
writing this classic primer on Anarchism.
