This book is a long overdue in-depth study of the Italian Social
Republic. Set up in 1943 by Hitler in the town of Salo on Lake
Garda and ruled by Mussolini, this makeshift government was a
last-ditch effort to ensure the survival of Fascism, ending with
the murder of Mussolini by partisans in 1945. The RSI was a loosely
organized regime made up of professed patriots, apostles of law and
order, and rogue militias who committed atrocities against presumed
and real enemies. H. James Burgwyn narrates the history of the RSI,
with vivid portraits of key figures and thoughtful analysis of how
radical fascists managed to take the Salo regime from a
dictatorship in Italy to a Continental nazifascismo, hand in hand
with the Third Reich. This book stands as an essential bookend to
the life of Mussolini, with new insights into the man who duped the
Italian people and provoked a war that ended in catastrophic
defeat.
