"The early work on many American writers who later became famous, and the more radical stories and poems of established writers, first appeared in the pages of The Anvil, The New Anvil and The Rebel Poet. These influential little magazines, founded and edited by B.C. Hagglund, a printer, and Jack Conroy, a young 'proletarian' writer, reflected a new literary renaissance emerging in Chicago and elsewhere in the Midwest through the depression years." - from the dust jacket.
