"The best scholarly description of European Fascism available."
--American Historical Review
"Professor Carsten surveys the major and minor European fascist groups which flourished between the world wars, including such movements as were active in Romania, Austria, Hungary, Finland, Britain, and Belgium. In doing so, he has produced a useful, if brief, addition to the growing number of studies on this subject."
--The Historian
"A short, responsible survey of how fascism came to power in Italy and Germany, with some valuable comparative data on fascist movements in other European countries."
--Foreign Affairs

--International Review of Social History
"To date, this is the best study on the origins of fascism . . . . "
