Il Duce Massimo: Volume 1: Volume I: Selected Speeches and Writings of Mussolini, from his Beginnings to the First Attempted Assassination (Dec 1901 - (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798892520591)

Benito Amilcare Andrea Mussolini (July 29th, 1883-April 28th, 1945), Il Duce of Italian Fascism and the Prime Minister of Italy from 1922 to 1943, is a man of undeniable historical impact. This arrangement contains his oldest political speeches and writings, spanning from the early days of his entry into politics to the first attempt on his life as a Socialist agitator and organizer. A few short years later, Mussolini would be expelled from the Italian Socialist Party for advocating for Italian intervention in the First World War. These writings provide a fascinating glimpse into his early life and political career before he would steer Italian and European politics onto a new trajectory, setting events in motion that would reverberate across the entire world.

From a young man of humble background and no aspirations beyond being a simple schoolteacher, through his period as a political exile, to a struggling young writer on the cusp of penury working as a newspaper editor and party secretary, an undeniable radicalism shines through. In these essays and speeches, one can already see a glimpse of the man who would rise to unimaginable heights and leave his mark on history.

Antelope Hill Publishing is proud to preserve the earliest speeches and political writings of Benito Mussolini in a newly edited physical edition: Il Duce Massimo: Volume I: Selected Speeches and Writings of Mussolini, from his Beginnings to the First Attempted Assassination (Dec 1901 - Oct 1911)
