Osvaldo Bayer Boeken

Adapted into an internationally acclaimed feature film in 1974, Osvaldo Bayer's popular and well regarded history Patagonia Rebelde was banned and publicly burned in Argentina during the 1970s. It is a gripping tale of struggle, strength, and tragedy. A nuanced study of strikes led by the powerful anarcho-syndicalist labour union FORA against the despotic landowners and industrialists of Argentina's Patagonia region in 1921-1922, it has come to be regarded as the definitive history of its subject. The first English translation brings the story to English speaking audiences.

The Anarchist Expropriators details a series of Robin Hood-like tales of daring heists and high-minded ideals that at the same time uncovers aspects of anarchist and Argentine history. It includes the story of Spanish revolutionary Durruti's time in Argentina before his return home to fight in the Spanish Civil War. In early 20th-century Argentina, anarchist expropriators employed direct, violent means to fund the production of books and other forms of propaganda. Bayer tells a sympathetic and thrilling story of crimes committed in the name of justice.
