Anarchy in the UK: The Angry Brigade (English Psychogeography)
Germany spawned the Red Army Faction, Italy the Red Brigades, France Action Directe, the United States the Weather Underground, Black Liberation Army, and UFF... Britain had the Angry Brigade. Much more than a small group of individuals, the Angry Brigade was a movement that challenged reaction and State power in all its forms. Part of a general European resistance movement, it was an armed offensive grounded in substantial popular support. No leaders, do it yourself... Here, in Tom Vague"s notorious barbed pop-culture style, is the story of Britain"s premier revolutionary hooligans. Drawing extensively on the Angry Brigade"s communiqués themselves, along with both the underground/counter-cultural and mainstream press of the late 60s/early 70s, and police and court documents, the book is profusely illustrated throughout...
