Publisher's Synopsis
The scope and depth of de Cleyre's activism, study and concern are finally available in this collection of poetry and prose. Combined into a fully annotated single volume are classic works as well as writings which have not been widely available for decades. Though never as infamous as Emma Goldman, de Cleyre distinguished herself as a leading intellectual, activist, speaker and writer. Though she died young in 1912 at the age of 46, she had already made a tremendous impact in anarchist, feminist and labour movements in America.
