A review by jeff_cochran
Anarchism by George Woodcock

5.0

The book, written in the middle of the 20th century, necessarily limits its scope to anarchism before 1939. The author is a Canadian non-proponent of anarchism that writes exclusively about anarchist movements outside of Canada.

If you are at peace with this and the implicit limitations (namely, a critical but fair review of European anarchism up to the end of the Spanish civil war), this book is a great read. The author, irrespective of the topic, wields a generational talent for superb writing. I will be checking out his other books.
