Blackshirts and Reds: Rational Fascism and the Overthrow of Communism by Michael Parenti

5.0

informative fast-paced

Chapter 1 is a must-read for those interested in the rise of fascism. The history of Soviet era struggles and successes as well as the experiences of people in post-Soviet countries were truly harrowing.
