All aspects of Mussolini's fascist rule are considered with engaging objectivity.

From his foreign policy aims and his 'brutal friendship' with Hitler, to Italy's contribution to the Second World War and the oppression to fascism that finally led to Mussolini's execution; this book promises to keep you hooked from beginning to end.
