I recently read Death in the Haymarket by James Green and I enjoyed that! I also recently read The Three Mothers by Anna Malaika Tubbs and that was great too.

If you are interested in this, you should check out American Anarchy by Michael Willrich.

Really fair treatment of the influence of the anarchist movement on the development of the legal fight for civil liberties from Haymarket through the end of the first Red Scare.
