Josef Peukert

Josef Peukert was an anarchist known for his autobiographical book Memoirs from the proletarian revolutionary labour movement. The book provided a glimpse into the early days of the radical labour movement in Austria, the start of the anarchist movement in Germany and the exile of the anarchists in London and America at the time of Socialist Law (1878-1890). The accuracy of the book was questioned by fellow anarchist and historian Max Nettlau, who looked upon it in a "highly-skeptical" manner. He was an ethnic German from Bohemia.
