Man's Rights; Or, How Would You Like It? (Dodo Press)
Annie Denton Cridge (1825-1875) was a British-American author, lecturer, socialist reformer, suffragist and spiritualist.

Anarchist Periodicals in English Published in the United States (1833-1955)
In the 19th and 20th centuries, dozens of anarchist publications appeared throughout the United States despite limited financial resources, a pestering and censorial postal department, and persistent harassment, arrest, and imprisonment by the State.
