I'd use /r/Anarchism or /r/Anarchy101 for this, but their resource lists tend towards polemics and hagiographies. I'm looking for secondary sources with a scholarly viewpoint.
Demanding the Impossible: A History of Anarchism is not explicitly focused on any period, but does devote the most space to the classic thinkers like Godwin, Proudhon, Kropotkin, Bakunin, and Goldman, all of whom are from or around this period.
I hope this is an acceptable comment. I know only of anarchy and communism in Paris. The hot bed of radicalism and simultaneously the arts (at first due to low rent) was in Montmartre (19th arrondissement? I don't quite recall).
After the Franco-Prussian war Napoleon III was deposed and the 3rd republic was declared. However the communards seized the opportunity and blockaded Paris proclaiming it a commune. They lost to republican forces as you can no doubt surmise and many were executed along a particular wall in Montmartre which is revered even today by the left in France.
I will add citations to this tomorrow when I am not on my phone, but the Sacre Couer basilica was constructed over Montmartre in what is perceived as a show of triumph over radicals and as a religious atonement for the "sins" of the communards. In building this there and by other methods the radical hotbed of Montmartre was stomped out.
As promised here's what I could find in my stacks of books still unsorted two months after a move: My comments on Sacre Couer can by corroborated with Colin Jones' Paris: The Biography of a City starting around page 374, and everything else I cannot cite because I cannot find anything about the modern period for some reason.
You might want to check some readings on Lysander Spooner and Benjamin Tucker for 19th Century Anarchism in the US.
Men Against the State is an older reading but somewhat useful. I read it a couple years ago when trying to dive into some of the theories.
Another read, and a lot shorter, focusing on the Old west of the US
For a specific topic within this category, here is a pretty conclusive history of the CNT during the Spanish Civil War, who took and held Barcelona as an open city for a year before their betrayal by republicans and Stalinists. The red-and-black flag most associated with anarchists these days is the flag of the CNT. Other extremely important groups are the FAI, a more orthodox anarchist group than the CNT trade unionists, the UGT, and POUM (Trotskyists who were slaughtered by Stalinists). The PCE and PSUC, their sister organization in Catalonia, backed the Republicans and Soviets, crushed Barcelona and killed a ton of people they saw as political enemies.
Some other SCW-related books I have lurking in my wishlist:
The Revolution and the Civil War in Spain
Anarchism and Workers' Self-Management in Revolutionary Spain
