2 of 2 people found the following review helpful: A unique window into left radicalism before 1917, 6 April 2005 By  Graeme Harker (London, England) - See all my reviews    Emma Goldman was one of America's first feminists and a contemporary of John Reed, the guy made famous by Warren Beatty's 1981 movie "Reds". If you've seen the movie and you want to get beyond the Hollywood gloss or if you want to understand what motivated the early radicals then read this book. The story starts with Emma as a young immigrant in NYC, which is a vivid first-hand account of the radical battles of the late 19th century in the USA; abortion, contraception, housing, workers' rights. The book is also a fascinating insight into the disputes within the radical movement before the movement was irrevocably shaken by the Russian revolution which split the movement for a century. After the Soviet revolution, loathed by the American establishment, she is deported to the young Soviet Russia nominally for her opposition to forced conscription during the First World War. The acccount of her experience in Russia is also fascinating. She arrives a believer but leaves in '21 as a disillusioned and active critic of the Bolsheviks. Anyone seriously interested in the history and origins of radical politics and the labour movement would be well advised to read this unique two-book autobiography.
