Fascism: A Warning by Madeleine K. Albright

3.0

This novel isn't what I expected. I was expecting a book organized around the concept of fascism itself, but the author divided the book into chapters, with each chapter focusing on a personality and a quick, readable overview of the individual's rise to power amidst the historical backdrop of the time. I consider this to be a casual, 'pop history' introduction to fascists throughout history. It was interesting to learn about the personal histories of Mussolini, Hitler, etc. I found the later chapters to be less engaging especially when she was in praise of the US's foreign policy.
