About This Item
New York: Farrar Straus and Company, 1948. first edition. hardcover. Book VG+: mild shelf wear, mild toning. text clean, binding tight./DJ VG-: small closed tears, edge wear, NOT clipped ($3.00). 8vo 212pp. from front flap: "It is seldom that a tyrant lives to tell, or wants to tell, of the fall of the empire he has created. Yet that is what Mussolini does in this unique account of the last days of fascist Italy and of the last period of his own life. This book is not unbiased historical fact. It is Mussolini's apologia, his attempt to prolong the Duce myth, his last desperate bid to the Italian people for reinstatement." #01508.
