An absolutely outstanding book! Such political clarity, mixed with passion and lyricism, particularly in sections where Morrow is denouncing the unforgivable crimes of the Stalinists.

We live in a world where the far-right and fascism is once again on the rise, and also where there is a resurgence of interest in socialism. This book is invaluable for understanding the real, historic limitations of anarchy, failures of social democracy and treachery of Stalinism, and for helping to understand why revolutionary, internationalist socialism from below, in the tradition of Marx, Lenin, Luxemburg and Trotsky, is the only way of defeating fascism and fighting for an equal and just world.
