520    "For six terrifying months in 1911-1912, the citizens of 
       Paris were gripped by a violent crime streak. A group of 
       bandits went on a rampage throughout the city and its 
       suburbs, robbing banks and wealthy Parisians, killing 
       anyone who got in their way, and always managing to stay 
       one step ahead of the police. But Jules Bonnot and the 
       Bonnot Gang weren't just ordinary criminals; they were 
       anarchists, motivated by the rampant inequality and 
       poverty in Paris. John Merriman tells this story through 
       the eyes of two young, idealistic lovers: Victor 
       Kibaltchiche (later the famed Russian revolutionary and 
       writer Victor Serge) and Rirette Maîtrejean, who 
       chronicled the Bonnot crime spree in the radical newspaper
       L'Anarchie. While wealthy Parisians frequented restaurants
       on the Champs-Élysées, attended performances at the 
       magnificent new opera house, and enjoyed the decadence of 
       the so-called Belle Époque, Victor, Rirette, and their 
       friends occupied a vast sprawl of dank apartments, bleak 
       canals, and smoky factories. Victor and Rirette rejected 
       the violence of Bonnot and his cronies, but to the police 
       it made no difference. Victor was imprisoned for years for
       his anarchist beliefs, Bonnot was hunted down and shot 
       dead, and his fellow bandits were sentenced to death by 
       guillotine or lifelong imprisonment. Fast-paced and 
       gripping, Ballad of the Anarchist Bandits is a tale of 
       idealists and lost causes--and a vivid evocation of Paris 
       in the dizzying years before the horrors of World War I 
       were unleashed."--Jacket flaps.
