About the book: 2014 / The thirties became the era of the triumph of fascist ideology in many European countries. Fascism was hidden under different names: National Socialism, Rexism, Falangism, but the main feature of all these movements was brutal anti-communism and hatred of the USSR. The famous publicist Valery Shambarov, the author of many books on the history of our country, presents a new fundamental study of the “era of fascism.” How fascism arose, how it grew stronger, how fascist groups fought each other for power, and how in the end they all set out in a single “crusade” to conquer our country, V. Shambarov’s book will tell about all this. Separately, the author will dwell on the role of fascist organizations in the outbreak of the Second World War and the participation in it of the “fascist international” of Europe. The book is intended for everyone interested in the history of pre-war Europe and the Second World War.
