Description:
Lanham, MD: University Press of America, 2000. hardcover. Book VG+: mild shelf wear to boards and spine, text clean, binding tight.. 8vo 372pp. from Foreword: "This book is a cornucopia of facts--facts about prehistoric painting, facts about prehistoric emotions, facts about the transition of both sort of facts throughout human history. At the turn of a millennium, it is right that we human beings should be preoccupied with our past, and this book takes us on an Odyssey of all of this, including some aspects that we repress--human sacrifice, for example. [. . .] This is hardly news, but the author of this book presents us with a particular set of facts which leads him to a particular theory for why this should be so. This, in a nutshell, is that the human brain, and the right hemisphere in particular, has evolved over this period, and led to the changes he describes." #02415.

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.
