Stuart Christie is a Scottish Anarchist most well-known for his part in the Spanish resistance to the dictator Franco: he was arrested in 1964 while carrying explosives to assassinate 'El Caudillo'. He was sentenced to twenty years in prison but only served three, being released due to international pressure. After his release he continued his activism in the Anarchist movement in the United Kingdom, founded the Anarchist Black Cross and Black Flag with Albert Meltzer, was acquitted of involvement in the Angry Brigade and started the publishing house Cienfuegos Press.
An updated version of his autobiography Granny Made me an Anarchist has recently been republished.
