Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. First published 1992. It's a sobering thought that Mosleyite fascism re-emerged in Britain after the defeat of the Nazis in WW II. Their rallies in London were met by a group of British Jewish military and nerchant shipping veterans, the 43 Group (including the author) who, in the five years or so after 1945, disrupted Mosley's meetings by direct action.

The Group was almost entirely made up of British servicemen, many Jewish, and the original 43 members quickly swelling to over 300. Thousands of fascist meetings and rallies were sent packing. The Group was organised in wedges of a dozen or so who attended a rally and at a given signal would storm the speaker's platform. The discipline of a military background, combined with spies within the fascist ranks, was brutally effective in closing down two-thirds of all fascist anti-semitic activity in the UK. This book is a timely reminder because fascism is gathering strength again today. (Originally published, 1993. This copy is the 2013 new edition by History Press.
