Mosley's Men in Black Covering the years 1932 - 1966, it takes an in-depth look at such things as the famous Blackshirt uniform; and the Movement's highly developed command structure and unique rank insignia. The book also investigates less well-known aspects of the B.U.F. including the Greyshirt Youth and Cadet Movements; and the 'Fascist Union of British Workers', all of whom had their own distinctive uniforms. Many years of research and the assistance of leading collectors in this field have allowed the author to give a complete coverage of this fascinating subject for the first time - making it an essential handbook for both historians and collectors of militaria. The book is 136 pages and has over 200 photographs and illustrations
many in colour. It has a deluxe cover. Actual book size is A5 (81/2"
x 61/2") Or direct from the publishers :- MY
LIFE - The autobiography of Sir Oswald Mosley It was a long journey along dark and dangerous paths but driven by his belief that courage and intellect would lead to the ultimate triumph of the 'revolt against destiny' he never faltered. His life story begins with his early days as an airman in the First World War; his attempt as a British Member of Parliament to persuade the government to act decisively against hunger and poverty in the Great Depression; his development of the British fascist ideal through British Union; his campaign for peace with honour and people and Empire intact; his imprisonment without charge or trial in the Second World War; and his emergence as the first political thinker to advocate the Union of Europe. Finally, Mosley describes his philosophy of the Evolution to Higher Forms, which he considered his greatest contribution to human thought: a doctrine that gives positive answers to the eternal question of life's meaning.

Blackshirts-on-Sea But these were holiday makers with a difference. The happy campers were all British Blackshirts: followers of the Mosley brand of fascism that stalked the political arena during that turbulent decade. Surprisingly, there appears to have been no shortage of adherents of that 'ultimate creed of political incorrectness' at the Blackshirt Summer Camps. Up to 1,400 could be found under canvas at any one time enjoying the pleasures of sun, sea, sand and Sussex. As the author rightly observes, perhaps the most remarkable aspect of the photographs is how completely normal most of these Hi-De-Hi Blackshirt campers look. And yet, almost 1000 of them were considered dangerous enough to be taken into custody when the Second World War began a few years later. Whether the reader's interest is British social history, local Sussex history or just casual curiosity, 'Blackshirts-on-Sea' is compulsive reading for everyone with a fascination for pre-Burger twentieth-century Britain. 131-pages, 225-photographs: Or direct from the publishers :- All Cheques and orders payable to 'BROCKINGDAY.
