Preface by Sébastien Faure.

That the story of the transnational work of a figure like Malatesta was written in Italian, published in New York, and printed in Paris by an Italian printer, Tipografia Sociali, is testimony to the international nature of the anarchist movement.

Borghi, the second ranking anarchist in Italy, after Malatesta, before he left for the U.S. in the mid-1920s, reviews 60 years of Malatesta’s life in this work, only a year or so of which was spent in the U.S. In addition to the book’s printing in Paris, the introduction by Faure, the French anarchist, is dated Paris, 1933.

Originally a socialist, Faure (1858–1942) turned to anarchism in 1888, and developed his theory of synthesis anarchism, the notion that the physical, mental and moral development of man were all equally important.
