Weather Underground; Dohrn, Bernadine; Jones, Jeff; Ayers, Billy [Bill]; Sojourn, Celia; et al
Prairie Fire - The Politics of Revolutionary Anti-Imperialism: The Political Statement of the Weather Underground
"Here is PRAIRIE FIRE, our political ideology - a strategy for anti-imperialism and revolution inside the imperial US. This paper has been collectively adopted as the political statement of the Weather Underground. PRAIRIE FIRE is written to communist-minded revolutionaries, independent organizers and anti-imperialists. It is written as an argument against those who oppose action and hold back the struggle." - Opening statement by Bernadine Dohrn, Billy (Bill) Ayers, Jeff Jones and Celia Sojourn. pp. [6], 7- 186, [6]. Frequently illustrated with grainy black and white reproductions of photos. Includes list of books studied in the preparation of this work. Chapters include: Impressions of U.S. History; Imperialism in Crisis - The Third World; Imperialism in Crisis - The Home Front; Against the Common Enemy; and more. "We are a guerrilla organization. We are communist women and men, underground in the United States for more than four years... Our intention is to disrupt the empire... to incapacitate it... to forge an underground, a clandestine political organization engaged in every form of struggle, protected from the eyes and weapons of the state, a base against repression, to accumulate lessons, experience and constant practice, a base from which to attack." - page 1 of an earlier edition. Prior to publication the Weather Underground had already bombed multiple government buildings. Twenty-one years after publication, Ayers and Dohrn hosted a meeting at which Illinois state Sen. Alice Palmer introduced Barack Obama as her chosen successor. The rest is history. Clean and unmarked with moderate wear. Binding tight. Sunning to spine. A sound vintage copy of this work, the influence of which dominates headlines almost fifty years after publication . 8.5" x 5.5". Book

First two pages loosening from rest of text block but not detached. Speeches delivered in the months leading up to the passage of the Coinage Act in June 1834. The brief publisher's introduction notes: "Upon reading through the whole of these occasional speeches of Mr. Webster they appear to treat the subject of currency so clearly and to state its importance not then so generally felt as it now is so fully and they show so far-sighted and perfect a discernment of the consequences of the measures which Government was at the time pursuing that is has been thought useful to make a small collection of extracts of these several performances and to publish them together."
