| Summary |
Alan Cassels offers a very superficial look at Mussolini's Italy, as the main part of the text is only 100 pages long, but he proves to have a solid grasp on all the scholarship in this area, which he presents in a lengthy bibliographical chapter at the end of the book. Much of that scholarship is either overly biased (focusing exclusively on the sillier elements of fascist spectacle and Mussolini's persona) or too apologetic, but Cassels manages to avoid either trap. Though written in 1985, "Fascist Italy" remains a decent introduction to the topic, and an excellent launching-off point for further study |
