“This study is a trea­sure cham­ber for all those inter­ested in the ide­ol­ogy of the heirs of fas­cism and Nazism in Europe and Amer­ica, of National bol­she­vism, Odin­ism, var­i­ous occult sects of the extreme right, and the groups which tried to pro­vide a syn­the­sis between the extreme left wing and far-right thought.”

- Wal­ter Laquer, author of The Black Hun­dred: The Rise of the Extreme Right in Rus­sia, and Fas­cism: Past, Present and Future

Book Descrip­tion

Biog­ra­phy. Fran­cis Parker Yockey, a lawyer and for­mer war-crimes pros­e­cu­tor, was one of the most enig­matic fig­ures inside the far right in both Europe and Amer­ica. While he is best known today for his book Imperium, a huge tome often described as a Mein Kampf for modern-day neo-Nazis, his life remains a mys­tery. Pur­sued by the U.S. gov­ern­ment for almost a decade, Yockey was arrested by the FBI in 1960. Shortly after his cap­ture, he was found dead in his jail cell. An autopsy showed that the 43-year-old mys­tery man had swal­lowed a cyanide cap­sule. Yockey’s story takes us into the heart of the post­war Fas­cist Inter­na­tional, a shadow Reich com­posed of spies, con­spir­a­tors, and occultists.
