To Catch a Fascist by Christopher Mathias (New - Hardcover) is a gripping, meticulously reported account of the modern rise of extremist networks and the investigators—journalists, activists, law enforcement, and ordinary citizens—who work to expose and dismantle them. Mathias combines on-the-ground reporting with deep legal and historical context, tracing how contemporary fascist movements organize online and offline, exploit legal loopholes, and infiltrate institutions. The book balances vivid narrative scenes and personal profiles with clear explanations of the tactics, funding streams, and communications strategies these groups use, offering readers both a stark warning and practical insights into accountability and prevention. Compellingly written and rigorously sourced, To Catch a Fascist is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the threats to democratic norms and the difficult, often dangerous work required to confront them.
