Title

Spanish anarchist Federico ‘Fede’ Arcos and Albert Meltzer in front of the Haymarket Martyrs' Monument

Description

"Remembering Federico ‘Fede’ Arcos (l) (July 18, 1920-May 23, 2015 — with Albert Meltzer at the Haymarket Martyrs' Monument, The Forest Home Cemetery, Chicago, 1993). ‘Fede’ was one of the principal financial mainstays of Cienfuegos Press, Refract Publications and ChristieBooks from the early 1970s until his death last summer, and it was primarily through him we were able to publish José Peirats’s 3-volume history of the CNT in English. The last time we met was at Heathrow Airport a few years ago when he was en route to Barcelona, but we spoke regularly by telephone. Sorry not to have been closer during those last difficult months for him. A toast to ‘Fede’ — ¡presente! ¡Salud y Libertad!"
