"As enthralling as it is sobering, Mark Bray's riveting tale of the legendary anarchist violence in Barcelona and Paris circa 1900 considers the burning question: can throwing bombs be understood as defending human rights against state violence?" –Michael T. Taussig, author of My Cocaine Museum
"Mark Bray is one of the world's preeminent scholars of anarchism, and there is no one better to shine a light into this dark, bloody–yet still hopeful–chapter in the leftist tradition's complex and evolving global history." –Kim Kelly, author of Fight Like Hell
"The Anarchist Inquisition is narrative history at its finest, told in thrilling detail, and an essential challenge to entrenched human rights discourses. At this moment of calcifying nationalisms, Bray calls our attention to anarchism's history of potent internationalism, which we would do well to rediscover." –Natasha Lennard, author of Being Numerous
