It divided the nation in the 1920s, and it has continued to arouse deep emotions, giving rise to an enormous literature. Few writers, however, have consulted anarchist sources for the wealth of information available there about the movement of which the defendants were a part. Now Paul Avrich, the preeminent American scholar of anarchism, looks at the case from this new and valuable perspective. This book treats a dramatic and hitherto neglected aspect of the \u003ci\u003ecause célèbre\u003c\/i\u003e that raised, according to Edmund Wilson, \"almost every fundamental question of our political and social system.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Sacco-Vanzetti affair is the most famous and controversial case in American legal history. It divided the nation in the 1920's, and it has continued to arouse deep emotions, giving rise to an enormous literature. Rather than focusing on the robbery and murder at the shoe factory near Boston, the infamous trial, and the worldwide protests that it occasioned, this author tells the absorbing stories of the lives of Nicola Sacco, a shoe worker, and Bartolomeo Vanzettil, a fish peddler, both Italian immigrants and anarchists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePaul Avrich\u003c\/b\u003e is Distinguished Professor of History at Queens College and the Graduate School, the City University of New York.
