    Default [STUDY GROUP] Conquest of Bread by Peter Kropotkin

    Anyone interested in doing a reading group for this book?

    I'd love to. I'm actually on the verge of finishing it right now, so I might as well!

    Awesome let's do it. I'll get started reading on Chapter 1 tonight and I'll post something either when I'm done or tomorrow.

    Once I finish the book tonight, I'll go back and skim the first chapter. I should be around most of tomorrow; it's definitely been a great read so I'm pretty excited about this.

    I've only read Mutual Aid (and a book based off of a lecture on Russian Literature) of Kropotkins. I like how to-the-point The Conquest of Bread is.
