In his heyday, Carlo Tresca ranked among the most important
radicals and labour activists in the United States, often sharing
the spotlight with Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, 'Big Bill' Haywood, and
Emma Goldman. A charismatic Italian anarchist who became a folk
hero to immigrant and native-born workers alike, Tresca was
described by comrades as a 'freelance revolutionary' because of his
independent spirit and militant activism. During his wild and
adventurous career spanning nearly forty years (1904-1943), Tresca
pursued a range of activities unmatched by any of his radical
contemporaries: independent newspaper editor, labour agitator and
organizer, civil libertarian, foremost leader of the Italian
American anti-fascist resistance, and an indomitable foe of
Stalinism. Culminating over a decade of research, this fast-paced
and vivid biography brings to life the volatile world of radical
politics in early twentieth-century America through one of its
foremost figures.
