Horia Sima (2019). The Epic of the Iron Guard. Diffusion of the lore. 470 pages.
Of all the fascist European "adventures" of the twentieth century, the one that was born in Romania under the aegis of the Archangel Michael Legion and its founder Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, remains one of the most interesting in many respects.
Indeed, the Romanian Legionary Movement, better known in France as the Iron Guard, intimately mixed political ambitions with a true orthodox mysticism, resulting in an ethics and discipline rarely equaled.
Horia Sima, successor to the "command" of the Iron Guard after the imprisonment of Codreanu, gives us in this history of the Romanian Legionary Movement the struggles and the martyrdom of its members for the sake of chronology that the reader will appreciate.
The first French version of this document appeared in Rio de Janeiro in 1972 and its echo did not have the expected resonance; this is the reason why an edition on French soil seems today quite legitimate.
