"What experiences shape an anarchist? What is it like to be a member of a visible minority, forced into precarious employment, dangerous working conditions, and poor pay? How does it feel to be framed for one's beliefs and left fighting for one's life?

Bartolomeo Vanzetti and his friend Nicola Sacco were sent to the electric chair based on flawed evidence, the victims of red-baiting and anti-Italian bigotry. Vanzetti's memoir tells a story that remains true to our own time, a story relived daily by workers everywhere, by prisoners, by those who love liberty.

Written by a humble fishmonger, The Story of a Proletarian Life stands out as one of the most moving and humane writings of anarchism."

Bartolomeo Vanzetti, translated from the Italian by Eugene Lyons. Black Cat Press, 2006.
