Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st American ed., 1st printing ; 256 p. : ill. ; 22 cm. ; ISBN 9780688030995 0688030998 LCCN 76026503 LC DG575.C516 A3513 1977 Dewey 945.0910924 ; OCLC 2373301 ; grey and beige cloth in photographic dustjacket ; Témoignage pour un homme , Edda Ciano se fait la chroniqueuse de ces moments décisifs . ; Mussolini, of course, was that man who gave Fascism a bad name. Her father just did not do enough in those closing days of the war to save her husband, Galeazzo Ciano, a man who served as Benito's Foreign Minister from 1936 to 1943 only to find himself on the wrong side of the dictator. The result was that he also found himself on the wrong side of a firing squad in 1944, and Il Duce allowed his 40-year-old son-in- law to die at Verona as a traitor to the Fascist cause. "When he told me that he could do nothing for my husband and that justice must follow its course, my reaction resembled that of one of the ancient Furies," writes the Countess about her last-ditch appeal to her father.Her reaction here was probably understandable. Her reactions and judgments at other times, however, are at best curious. She talks about her life in Roman society, as well as with father, her days of travels to China and elsewhere with her diplomat husband, her meetings with "amiable and cultivated" Adolf Hitler, her belief that Jews, then and now, control "the levers of command almost everywhere in the world," her efforts to flee Italy when all seemed lost and, finally, that last, fruitless battle to save Galeazzo.The story-told to French journalist Albert Zarca-has its moments of interest and insights. But, alas, they are few and, lacking most are all those goodies one would expect from a daughter on what really made her old man tick. Instead Il Duce slips in and out of the book as if he really doesn't want to be there. He is playing the violin to help this only daughter fall asleep, he is later calling her his "little princess," he is conquering females, he is running from rooms when people cough and he is stiff with terror whenever he needs a hypodermic needle. What emerges is. the portrait of a shadow.The main focus is on her husband, who was well-mannered and intelligent, a man who was at the beginning of a diplomatic career when he met Edda, herself recovering from her father's insistence she break up with a nice Jewish boy. She found few faults in the young diplomat and, indeed, "the only thing he lacked was a propensity for sports." Count Ciano was a tragic figure at the end, a victim who was unjustly executed by extremist elements of the Fascist Party only for voting against his father-in-law in the party's inner council in 1943. It was that vote that deprived Mussolini of power for a brief period until he was rescued by the Nazis and allowed to come back as the head of the shrinking "Italian Social Republic."That whole period in Italy's history still holds a strong fascination. After all, it was an era that fundamentally shaped Italy's future and influenced the present outlook, rhetoric and stance of Italians generally and the political parties, left and right. Many others have given their versions, including Count Ciano himself in posthumously published diaries, and Mussolini in his "Storia." If there is anything else to say, however, the Countess unfortunately is not disclosing what it is.Why did she wait this long to tell her story? She says that she is animated neither by a desire for revenge against her father nor by the wish to make her husband a hero. She just wants to set the record straight, she reports, and notes that if she had written the book earlier, no one would have believed her ; It does take a little courage to say nice things about Fascism and Hitler.-- Alvin Shuster ; FINE/FINE.
