Pitted Against Anarchists is a historical non-fiction book written by William Fretz Kemble and published in 1899. The book provides a detailed account of the anarchist movement in the late 19th century and the efforts of law enforcement agencies to combat it. Kemble, a former police officer, draws on his own experiences and research to describe the origins and beliefs of anarchism, as well as the violent actions of anarchist groups such as the Haymarket Riot and the assassination of President McKinley. He also delves into the strategies used by law enforcement officials to identify and apprehend anarchists, including surveillance, infiltration, and the use of informants. Throughout the book, Kemble provides a critical analysis of the anarchist movement, arguing that it poses a significant threat to the stability of society and the rule of law. He also highlights the challenges faced by law enforcement agencies in dealing with this threat, including the limitations of surveillance technology and the difficulty of distinguishing between peaceful protest and violent action. Overall, Pitted Against Anarchists provides a fascinating insight into a turbulent period of American history and the struggle between law enforcement and anarchist groups. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of political extremism and the role of law enforcement in maintaining social order.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
