Review Quote This brightly colored, action-filled graphic narrative details the long, deep history of fascism and opposition to it ... The book sounds the warning that refusing to recognize the threat and failing to respond physically means failing to learn from history. Even those who oppose Antifas tactics will find their perspective broadened by this graphic history. -- Kirkus Reviews Description for Sales People Resurgences in neo-facist movements across the US and UK has generated interest in how it was tackled in the past.
