“Grave and his publications were central to transnational networks of international anarchism in the prewar era. … this important book documents the central role of networks in the anarchist movement and the central role that Grave and his publications played in those networks at the turn of the century.” (Jon Bekken,H-Net Reviews, h-net.org, May, 2022)
