      "Stuart Christie (1946-2020) is best known for his involvement in the anarchist resistance to the Franco dictatorship in Spain. He also co-founded the Anarchist Black Cross, Black Flag and Cienfuegos Press - among many other publishing ventures. This collection of articles has been put together as a tribute to his life by the Kate Sharpley Library collective. It contains some of his short political writings from the anarchist, radical and mainstream press; and some of his tributes to his friends and comrades. The final section contains a selection of tributes friends and comrades paid to him. This book is not meant to be a crash course in modern anarchist history but simply a tribute to our friend who dedicated his life to 'self-managed collectivism, individual freedom, solidarity and fun!'"-- Back cover

      Sommer 1964: Während die Beatles die Hitparaden anführen und Nelson Mandela verurteilt wird, wird der achtzehnjährige Schotte Stuart Christie in Madrid festgenommen, als er mit einem Rucksack voller Sprengstoff für ein Attentat auf General Franco unterwegs ist. In dieser spannenden und humorvollen Erzählung beschreibt Christie, wie er zum bekanntesten Anarchisten Großbritanniens wurde. Aufgewachsen im Glasgower Proletariat, prägte ihn die anarchistische Moral seiner Großmutter, die ihn früh politisch aktiv werden ließ. Nach dem gescheiterten Attentat wurde er von einem spanischen Militärgericht wegen Banditentums und Terrorismus zu zwanzig Jahren Haft verurteilt, verbrachte jedoch nur drei Jahre im Gefängnis, da internationaler Druck und ein Gnadengesuch seiner Mutter zu seiner Freilassung führten. Fünf Jahre später stand er erneut vor Gericht, diesmal wegen angeblicher Verbindungen zur britischen Angry Brigade, wurde jedoch freigesprochen. Diese Erzählung bietet einen lebendigen Einblick in die politischen Bewegungen und Umbrüche der sechziger und siebziger Jahre in Großbritannien und Europa und ist zudem ein fesselnder Lesegenuss. Eine Verfilmung ist für 2014 geplant, basierend auf einem Drehbuch von Duncan Campbell und Ronan Bennett!

      In 1964, at the age of 18, Stuart Christie was sentenced to 22 years in prison for attempting to assassinate the Spanish dictator, Francisco Franco. He shares the fascinating history of one of Spain's most radical political organisations, that acted through small, loose knit groups of militants. Christie's intimate knowledge of the FAI provides an essential historical correction of this much maligned and misunderstood group.
