Description
The following conversations took place in thePalazzo di Venezia at Rome, being held almost dailyfor an hour at a time between March 23 and April4, 1932, both dates inclusive. We talked Italian andeach conversation was recorded by me in Germanas soon as it was finished. Only a few sentences fromearlier conversations have been introduced into thisbook. The German manuscript was submitted toMussolini, who checked the passages in which hisown utterances were recorded.No material other than the before-mentioned hasbeen incorporated, but I have to acknowledge myindebtedness to Margherita Sarfatti for a good manyhints conveyed to me in her biography. I have madeno use of the numberless anecdotes current inRome; and I have ignored the reports of Mussolini'scollaborators, informative though these are. In aword, the talks consist of what actually passed inconversation between Mussolini and myself.
