Herbert Read (1893–1968) was a poet, literary critic, educationalist, philosopher, art critic, historian of and propagandist for modern art and design. He was also an anarchist.
From his declaration of anarchism in 1937 until his acceptance of a knighthood in 1953, Read contributed to Freedom and its precursors articles, book reviews and poems, This volume reprints all of these, most for the first time since their original publication, together with three of his pamphlets for Freedom Press: The Education of Free Men, Freedom: Is It a Crime? and Art and the Evolution of Man.
