Emma Goldman. 
 
New York: Mother Earth Publishing, 1910. First edition.Small octavo. Hardcover, no jacket, housed in a custom clamshell box. This copy was professionally restored but condition issues remain: moisture damage affecting the text block, endpapers, and spine. Foxing on the fore-edge and top of the text block. Binding firm. A rare first edition of this seminal work on anarchism. Book is good, box is near fine.
 
Still, all the power of readability in Goldman is preserved and immediate in this 100 year old (plus) treasure of American history.
