Excerpt from The Fascist Movement in Italian Life
Fascism not only boasts a sanguinary and brilliant history, which has been crowned by victory, but it is also beginning to produce an abundant literature. Almost all Italian writers have endeavoured to treat of this complex and powerful movement, which is so intensely national and Italian, because it has no parallel in the history of other peoples. A good pamphlet on Fascism from the critical point of view has been written by Mario Missiroli. Amongst others, our friend Doctor Pietro Gorgolini, has entered the field with this volume, which is, to our mind, the best publication on Fascism that has appeared in Italy since March 1919 until to-day.
Doctor Gorgolini is not only a student of Fascism, but has been a soldier of our cause from its beginning. Such qualities might have prejudiced his judgment and intuition and might have tainted his study of Fascism with a quality of subjective passion. But he has brilliantly overcome this difficulty, and in his book we find a perfect adjustment of the qualities of actor and spectator, soldier and critic. Elementary discretion prevents me from speaking of the first part of the book, which has been dedicated to a study of myself.
