Fascism in Great Britain Collection
Scope and Contents
A collection of published and unpublished documents relating to Fascism and other right-wing movements in 20th century Britain up to the period of the demise of the Union Movement, but including critical and biographical material published after the period. It includes a number of rare pamphlets, and includes for the most part documents produced by the British Union of Fascists before 1940, as well as more overtly anti-Semitic material produced by organisations such as the Sons of Liberty and the Imperial Fascist League.
