“Cassius”. The Trial of Mussolini. London: Victor Gollancz LTD, 1943. Third edition. Octavo. 82pp. Original blue cloth with with dark blue lettering on spine. “This volume has… bee compiled with the purpose of ensuring that justice is done. All essential statements attributed in its pages to the various witnesses are genuine, and may be corroborated from the newspaper cuttings at the time. none of the chief characters are fictitious… The writing of a report of a trial before it takes place obviously involves many difficulties. Lawyers will certainly find the procedure strange and irregular. This failing, it is hoped, will be excused on account of the strict standard of historical accuracy which Cassius has resolved to sustain.” (introduction).
