Synopsis

""Escape: The Personal Narrative Of A Political Prisoner Who Was Rescued From Lipari, The Fascist Devil�������s Island"" is a memoir written by Francesco Fausto Nitti, an Italian political prisoner during the fascist regime of Benito Mussolini. The book details Nitti's experiences as a prisoner on the island of Lipari, where he was held captive for his anti-fascist beliefs. Nitti describes the harsh conditions of the prison, the brutal treatment of prisoners by the guards, and the psychological toll of being isolated from the outside world. The memoir also recounts Nitti's daring escape from the prison with the help of a group of anti-fascist activists, who risked their own lives to rescue him. Through Nitti's personal story, ""Escape"" provides a powerful insight into the realities of life under a fascist regime, as well as the resilience and bravery of those who fought against it.This is a new release of the original 1930 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
