Its visions and aims have been distorted and misunderstood, its achievements forgotten. The British anarchist movement during the years 1880–1930, while borrowing from Europe, was self-actuated and independent, with a vibrant tale all its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Slow Burning Fuse\u003c\/em\u003e, John Quail shows a history largely obscured and rewritten following 1919 and the triumph of Leninist communism. The time has arrived to resurrect the works of the early anarchist clubs, their unsung heroes, tumultuous political activities, and searing manifestos so that a truer image of radical dissent and history can be formed. Quail’s story of the anarchists is one of utopias created in imagination and half-realised in practice, of individual fights and movements for freedom and self-expression—a story still being written today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePraise:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“\u003cem\u003eThe Slow Burning Fuse\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eis a meticulous, accessible and riveting account of the British anarchist movement. John Quail introduces us to the anarchists of the Socialist League, explores the early history of the Freedom group, describes the murky world of police spies and agents provocateurs, and shows how small groups of anarchists in London and Sheffield animated working-class movements at the turn of the twentieth century. Quail’s rich history is also an unflinching reflection on anarchist organising. Examining the personal feuds that plagued the movement and the political disagreements generated by the incidence of violence in France, Quail shows how internal divisions exacerbated the problems created by systematic police repression. Anarchist utopian aspirations are easily romanticised or mocked. Quail avoids both and instead invites us to weigh up the value of spectacular actions and consider the effectiveness of strategic initiatives. The result is a passionate but sober defence of anarchist politics and movement building.”\u003cbr\u003e—Ruth Kinna, author of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eKropotkin: Reviewing the Classical Anarchist Tradition\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“The book is important and groundbreaking, though Quail was mainly interested in action rather than theory, describing the discussion of theory as ‘balls-achingly boring.’”\u003cbr\u003e—Peter Ryley, author of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eMaking Another World Possible\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“\u003cem\u003eThe Slow Burning Fuse\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eremains the most readable book on the history of British anarchism.

Staunchly working class, the first generation of RF members engaged in numerous street battles with Swedish fascists. When the fascists retreated from the streets, RF attacked them in their homes. The police cracked down on the organization in 2013, raiding the apartments of several alleged members at the crack of dawn. The courts handed out prison sentences of up to six and a half years.

A shepherd, a sailor, and a Quaker, Benjamin Lay insisted that all people, of all nations and races around the world, were equal. Every human being—rich and poor, men and women, Black and white—deserved respect, love, and freedom. After he protested against his fellow Quakers for enslaving others in violation of the golden rule, “do to others as you would have them do to you,” they banished him from the Quaker meeting. When they ridiculed his small body, he stood up to their prejudice and proclaimed the truth of human decency. He boycotted all products made by the labor of enslaved people. He spoke out bravely against cruelty and oppression. He lived a life of peace, tolerance, and brotherly love. A man far ahead of his time, he proved to be right in the long run, as Quakers and others eventually joined him in opposing human bondage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePraise\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Benjamin Lay was a person of almost super-human compassion and courage and he is one of history’s most remarkable heroes.
