A charismatic Italian anarchist who became a folk hero to immigrant and native-born workers alike, Tresca was described by comrades as a 'freelance revolutionary' because of his independent spirit and militant activism. During his wild and adventurous career spanning nearly forty years (1904-1943), Tresca pursued a range of activities unmatched by any of his radical contemporaries: independent newspaper editor, labour agitator and organizer, civil libertarian, foremost leader of the Italian American anti-fascist resistance, and an indomitable foe of Stalinism. Culminating over a decade of research, this fast-paced and vivid biography brings to life the volatile world of radical politics in early twentieth-century America through one of its foremost figures. 410 0$aItalian and Italian American studies (Palgrave Macmillan (Firm)) 606 $aAnarchists$zUnited States$vBiography 615 0$aAnarchists 676 $a335/.83/092 676 $aB 700 $aPernicone$b Nunzio$f1940-$01706194 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816929903321 996 $aCarlo Tresca$94093435 997 $aUNINA
