These are works by the Irish-American individualist Anarchist writer William Bailie (1867-1957). Bailie was born in Belfast, emigrated as a young man to Manchester, and then left for the United States in 1891, settling in Boston. Originally attracted to the communist Anarchism of Kropotkin, in Boston, Bailie became a devotee of Benjamin Tucker’s individualist anarchism.
