Verona at War

- Volume I: Rise

Om Verona at War

This is the story of an ancient city at war. From the embers of the Great War, a violent new ideology is born. In the streets and piazzas of Verona, the fledgling movement establishes a foothold. Led by charismatic ideologues with the financial backing of wealthy barons and the brute force of a violent mob, the ideology quickly spreads across the city and beyond. It even hosts a series of dramatic interventions by the leader of the movement himself, Benito Mussolini. Seizing power, the new regime immediately embarks on an ambitious programme of urban renewal and industrial regeneration, but violence and intimidation are never far behind. From the first meetings in a backstreet osteria, to the striking torchlight processions and relentless campaign of mob violence, Richard Hough charts the rise of fascism in Verona, a city more commonly associated with the genteel world of opera and Shakespeare. _________________________________________________ This book is written and published by an independent author based in Italy.
