Translated and edited by Charles Jernigan & Irene Marchegiani Jones Includes the original woodcuts of the 1589 Aldine edition. Introduction, notes, bibliography. 2nd printing. Atzeni, Sergio Bakunin’s Son WHO WAS Tullio Saba: anarchist, womanizer, unscrupulous businessman, rich dilettante at politics and life?
