Fast?s fascinating biography of Joseph Broz, known to the world as Tito, including his rise to power and his remarkable stand against fascism The world was mired in the Second World War when Howard Fast wrote The Incredible Tito. Upon the book?s publication in 1944, there was still no united Yugoslavia, the Axis controlled most of Europe, and D-Day was only in the planning stages. In the Balkans, Tito was a beacon of hope against the advancing Nazis. He led a force of resistance fighters that bedeviled the occupying German army throughout Slavic regions and empowered people?s committees to act as local government in all liberated areas. For observers on the political left, Tito seemed uniquely poised to unite the East and West against fascism?once and for all. ? This ebook features an illustrated biography of Howard Fast including rare photos from the author?s estate.
