Motorsport and Fascism: Living Dangerously
ISBN: 9783030979669 / Angielski / Twarda Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is the first English-language study of motorsport and Italian Fascism, arguing that a synergy existed between motor racing and Fascism that did not exist with other sports.

Chapters discuss the centrality...
