Peter Kropotkin’s Mutual Aid

So, yet another item that has been sitting in the queue has been added to the mix at The Memory Hole. In this case, the brilliant exposition of Peter Kropotkin in his seminal work, Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution. This is the edition edited by Paul Avrich and features a thoughtful introduction by him.

The book is broken into individual chapters and other components, each available in the Adobe portable document format. An online table of contents is provided to make it easy for readers to find their way around the book. Enjoy!

Benjamin R. Tucker Anthology

Finally got around to uploading the Benjamin R. Tucker centenary anthology originally published in paperback in 1986 by Michael E. Coughlin and Mark Sullivan. The occasion for this volume was not clear apart from a seminal Tucker essay, State Socialism and Anarchism: How Far They Agree, and Wherein They Differ, that was supposed to have been published about 100 years prior.

Be that as it may, the collected essays are herewith presented to the reader with access to Adobe Reader. Each essay is presented as a separate document to help minimize bandwidth requirements.

The Great Explosion is Awah

Received an advisory from a literary agent representing Eric Frank Russell’s estate that the science fiction author’s novel, The Great Explosion, posted on TMH had to be removed. Here’s the note:

I understand that you host the [The Great Explosion] website. Pollinger Ltd are the literary representatives for the Estate of Eric Frank Russell.

The Great Explosion by Eric Frank Russell is currently copyright-protected, therefore I must inform you that you are required to remove it immediately from the site.

Please confirm by email that the work has been removed.

Thank you in advance for your co-operation.

So, the novel was removed from TMH and then there was none.
