The Friends of Durruti Group

Spain 1936-1939: This is the story of a group of anarchists engaged in the most thoroughgoing social and economic revolution of all time. Essentially street fighters with a long pedigree of militant action, they used their own experiences to arrive at the finest contemporary analysis of the Spanish revolution. In doing so they laid down essential markers for all future revolutionaries. This study – drawing on interviews with participants and synthesizing archival information – is the definitive text on these unsung activists.
