Description
Egon Erwin Kisch—the famous Czech writer, journalist, and activist—and his Australian experience are placed within the larger context of the rise of fascism in Europe in this look at one of the major figures in the European ideological struggles of the 1930s. This expose reveals the lengths the British and Australian governments and secret intelligence services went to prevent Kisch from entering Australia, providing extraordinary insight into the political atmosphere during the buildup to World War II.
