If people could request that their public library gets a copy that would be appreciated!

Slowly working my way through - I knew the thing about "libertarian" being first used by Dejacque as "libertaire" but I assumed he was probably living in France, I never realised before that New York has a claim to being the home of (proper) libertarianism. Had never encountered that Engels quote about the importance of splits before either, slightly surprised that one's not better known.

Here's a thought - @Battlescarred, are you doing or interested in doing any podcast interviews to promote the book? Off the top of my head, I think Time Talks, Final Straw and Coffee with Comrades are all shows that sometimes do interviews with authors of anarchist books. Could well be worth the authors of Sick of it All getting in touch with those shows as well, I suppose?

Anarchist Popular Power
<p>Arguably the most impactful anarchist organization globally in the Cold War era, the FAU viewed everyday people as revolutionary protagonists and sought to develop a popular counter-subjectivity through accumulating experiences directly challenging the market and the state. The FAU argued...
