| Summary |
"Often overshadowed by the persecution of Jews in Germany, the treatment of Jews in Fascist Italy comes into sharp focus in this volume by Italian historian Michele Sarfatti. Beginning with a history of Italian Jews in the decades before fascism - when Jews were fully integrated into Italian national life - Sarfatti provides a deft and comprehensive history from the rise of fascism in 1922 to its defeat in 1945."--BOOK JACKET |
