Praise
“For far too long Elisée Reclus has stood in the shadow of Godwin,
Proudhon, Bakunin, Kropotkin, and Emma Goldman. Now John Clark has
pulled Reclus forward to stand shoulder to shoulder with Anarchism’s
cynosures. Reclus’ light brought into anarchism’s compass not only a
focus on ecology, but a struggle against both patriarchy and racism,
contributions which can now be fully appreciated thanks to John Clark’s
exegesis and [his and Camille Martin’s] translations of works previously
unavailable in English. No serious reader can afford to neglect this
book.”
—Dana Ward, Pitzer College
“Finally! A century after his death, the great French geographer and
anarchist Elisée Reclus has been honored by a vibrant selection of his
writings expertly translated into English.”
—Kent Mathewson, Louisiana State University
“Maintaining an appropriately scholarly style, marked by deep
background knowledge, nuanced argument, and careful qualifications,
Clark and Martin nevertheless reveal a passionate love for their subject
and adopt a stance of political engagement that they hope does justice
to Reclus’ own commitments.”
—Historical Geography
“Clark and Martin have opened the door, through their deep
introduction and selected reprints, to one of the great thinkers of 19th
century anarchist thought.”
—Anarchy
“This inspiring analysis and anthology does an excellent job of placing Reclus in his anarchist and social context.”
—Anarchist Studies
