Excerpts from Books and Wikipedia
"According to the version of events trumpeted by fascist propaganda, the massed ranks of virile supporters of Benito Mussolini marched on Rome and seized power from the decadent democratic regime. . . . The next day, some 30,000 Blackshirts arrived in the capital. The so-called 'March on Rome' took place after Mussolini had come to power, not before, and it was bloodless." [Furtado: 1001 Days]
