The Fanatics

by Simon Tomlin

Set against a socio-economic landscape on the verge of collapse across the Eurozone, neo-Nationalism is on the rise again. Simon Tomlin charts the rise of European neo-nationalism from its violent reawakening in England in the 1970s in a nation struggling to find its identity after the loss of Empire to the modern imitations across the European Union and explains their success. This is a gripping account of the mechanics of modern political power and the forces of the Old Order that are being confronted and defeated by nationalists. From the back-streets of Derbyshire with murdered neo-Nazi leader Ian Stuart to the collapse of the British National Party and the rise of Marine Le Pen in France; The Fanatics will leave you spellbound and shocked. Are the 1930s coming round again in Europe? The civil war in Ukraine and the involvement of thousands of neo-Nazi volunteers should be the only warning people need of what is coming in Europe...
