Current Research
- I am currently writing a biography of Johann Most, a German socialist
and later anarchist who immigrated to the United States in 1882. Most was
born in 1846 in Augsburg, Bavaria and died in Cincinnati in 1906. I have
completed the primary research. The book is contracted to be published by
the University of Illinois Press in 2012 with a tentative title: "Johann
Most: A Biography."
