First edition. Goldman (1869-1940) was an active anarchist, peace activist, anti-militarist, atheist and feminist thinker. Her works focus on atheism, freedom of speech, militarism, capitalism, marriage, free love, and homosexuality. The large title woodcut shows a personification of Patriotism (wearing a Greek helmet) crushing Liberty (who has lost her Phrygian cap).
Insignificant corner chipping to wrappers. Title and final page browned, otherwise fine.
