Through his many books on the history of anarchism, Paul Avrich
has done much to dispel the public's conception of the anarchists
as mere terrorists. In "Anarchist Voices, " Avrich lets American
anarchists speak for themselves. This abridged edition contains
fifty-three interviews conducted by Avrich over a period of thirty
years, interviews that portray the human dimensions of a movement
much maligned by the authorities and contemporary journalists. Most
of the interviewees (anarchists as well as their friends and
relatives) were active during the heyday of the movement, between
the 1880s and the 1930s. They represent all schools of anarchism
and include both famous figures and minor ones, previously
overlooked by most historians. Their stories provide a wealth of
personal detail about such anarchist luminaries as Emma Goldman and
Sacco and Vanzetti.
