Stuart Hood, distinguished British writer, broadcaster, World War II POW escapee and resistance fighter, traces the origins of fascism in the nineteenth century traditions of ultra-conservatism, and shows how the ideas of Nietzsche, Wagner and other intellectuals helped to make racist doctrines acceptable. He explores the legitimacy that these ideas gave to extreme right-wing groups in the 1930s and defines the four types of fascism that emerged at that time in Europe and Japan. Finally, he points to where and how fascism is returning today. The book is vividly illustrated by Litza Jansz.
