Title: Trotsky's writings through the filter of Pathfinder
Review: "Fascism, what it is and how to fight it" is presented as a work by Leon Trotsky, but is in fact an assemblage of excerpts from various of Trotsky's writings, collected and ordered by Sara Lobman and printed by the Pathfinder Press. The original source for each passage is cited in a footnote. Other footnotes, apparently written by Ms. Lobman to make Trotsky's references more familiar, give historically useful facts such as "The Jacobins were the revolutionary petty-bourgeois forces in the French Revolution of 1789." As a short introduction to Trotsky's thought, it can serve its purpose provided one is already versed in Marxist rhetoric.
