Reviews

—Stanislao G. Pugliese:
Rota’s biography of Angelo Tasca--a critically-important figure in 20th-century Italian political history--is clear, balanced,and engaging. Rota traces Tasca’s tormented trajectory from communism to Vichy with judicious restraint and empathy. An insightful and provocative work of intellectual history.

—Roy Domenico:
An original work. A good account of an intellectual and political journey from Italian and French socialism and communism through Vichy collaboration and back to an anti-communist moderate left.

...Rota's book is a fine example of a scholarly biography of an important figure in the history of the Italian Left. It is a pity that there are so few books of this nature available.
