　　The fascinating story of a long-forgotten "war on terror" that

has much in common with our own On a February evening in 1894, a

young radical intellectual named mile Henry drank two beers at an

upscale Parisian restaurant, then left behind a bomb as a parting

gift. This incident, which rocked the French capital, lies at the

heart of The Dynamite Club, a mesmerizing account of Henry and his

cohorts and the war they waged against the bourgeoisiesetting off

bombs in public places, killing the president of France, and

eventually assassinating President McKinley in 1901. Paris in the

belle poque was a place of leisure, elegance, and power. Newly

electrified, the citys wide boulevards were lined with posh

department stores and outdoor cafs. But prosperity was limited to a

few. Most lived in dire poverty, and workers and intellectuals

found common cause in a political philosophyanarchismthat embraced

the overthrow of the state by any means necessary. Yet in targeting

civilians to achieve their ends, the dynamite bombers charted a new

course. Seeking martyrdom, believing fervently in their goal, and

provoking a massive government reaction that only increased their

ranks, these "evildoers" became, in effect, the first terrorists in

modern history. Surprising and provocative, The Dynamite Club is a

brilliantly researched account that illuminates a period of

dramatic social and political changeand subtly asks us to reflect

upon our own.
