"Delivers the untold story of the Irish woman who tried to kill Mussolini and stop the rise of Fascism, in an account that looks at the woman's aristocratic childhood; her engagement with the critical ideas of her era, including pacifism, mysticism and socialism; her role in the cult of Mussolini; and more."
"In a grand tragic narrative, full of suspense and mystery, conspiracy and backroom diplomacy, Saunders vividly resurrects the life and times of Violet Gibson, a woman who sought to stop the rise of Fascism, whatever the cost."@en
""At 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday, April 7, 1926, a woman stepped out of the crowd on Rome's Campidoglio Square and shot Benito Mussolini at point-blank range. He escaped virtually unscathed. Violet Gibson, who expected to be thanked for her action, was arrested, labeled a 'crazy Irish spinster' and a 'half-mad mystic'--and promptly forgotten. Now, in an elegant work of reconstruction, Frances Stonor Saunders retrieves this remarkable figure from the lost historical record. In a grand, tragic narrative, full of suspense and mystery, conspiracy and backroom diplomacy, she vividly resurrects the life and times of a woman who sought to forestall catastrophe, whatever the cost."--Cover."@en
