TABLE OF CONTENTS --
Rome or death! --
A day when all Italy trembles --
The body between my feet --
If I advance, follow me --
I'll stick to him, rain or shine --
Enough, stop it! we're on your side! --
It's the crumbling of the whole damned thing --
Preserve the blood of the duce --
You must drink the cup of bitterness --
They call me Benito Quisling --
We have to write the world "finito" --
God, what an ignorable end.
October, 1922. The Tivoli Gardens. The Blackskirts are ready for the march on Rome. So begins Richard Collier's riveting account of the rise and fall of Benito Mussolini, founder of the Fascist Party.
