Description: "One of the most colorful, controversial, and radical figures in American history, Emma Goldman challenged the legitimacy of religion, government, and private property in the United States. Although Goldman was imprisoned, tried, and later deported for her beliefs, her story is a window through which students will gain a broader view of the history of American radicalism, the history of civil liberties in America, and the history of American foreign policy."--Jacket.
