'A compelling and sobering read' JOHN DICKIE, author of Mafia Republic

'Deeply researched and powerfully written' ROSS KING, author of Brunelleschi's Dome



The explosive story of the terrorist group who brought Italy to a standstill in the 1970s.



In March 1978, the Red Brigades kidnapped former Italian prime minister Aldo Moro, murdering his bodyguards. For nearly two months, they held him hostage while a shocked world looked on, before eventually killing him and dumping his body in the middle of Rome.


But who were this terrorist group? What did they want? And how did they continue to operate for almost twenty years, terrifying a nation from 1970 to 1988? In John Foot's remarkable new book, we learn how they became the most formidable left-wing terrorist organisation in post-war Western Europe.


Drawing their support from the student protest movements of the 1960s, activists and workers radicalised by the 'hot autumn' of 1969, the Red Brigades were inspired by terrorist groups from across the world, especially in Latin America. They recognised no rules and authority other than their own, and launched a campaign of murder, kidnap, kneecapping and intimidation that paralysed Italy's justice system and reshaped the political landscape. For a time, they were admired as freedom fighters by the Italian left and commemorated as martyrs.


Through meticulous research, Foot uncovers the true story behind the myths that have grown around the Red Brigades, highlighting the human costs of their actions, as well as their impact on Italian socie

Comfortable yoga mat
Color: Blue Mist, Style: 1/2 inch, Color: Blue Mist, Style: 1/2 inch
I was due for a new yoga mat as I practice every day anywhere from 10 minutes to 45 minutes. Over the years I've taken to liking the 1/2" thick mats with the grip lines. They're just easier on the joints (two acl reconstructions and a spinal fusion from T2 to L2) and a plate in my wrist. This mat is great. I like the design and color, the thickness is perfect, no smell AT ALL which is both rare and awesome. I used it today and found it comfortable. I also like the 72" length because I'm about 5'9 so I'm not hanging off the mat. I've been practicing yoga for over 15 years and have my CYT 200 even though I don't teach, and I would highly recommend this mat.

Thick/Fluffy
Color: Violet Haze, Style: 1/2 inch
I’ve really been enjoying this yoga mat. It’s fluffy and thick, which gives great support for my knees during certain poses and stretches. The length is also perfect, especially for someone on the taller side. I chose the light purple color, and it matches the pictures perfectly. As someone who practices yoga regularly and also uses it for stretching in my home gym, I think this mat is a great choice for both comfort and support.

Great for hand pain while working out.
Color: Wild Spruce, Style: 1/2 inch
Not squeaky, non slip. Much thicker and comfier than a normal yoga mat. Only thing is wearing sneakers on it, it might give you some more squeak. Just wipe down with a wet wipe after class. Keep it in my car. Purple color is perfect- muted yet a statement. Goes with all my clothes/towels.

Lightweight yoga mat
Color: Rose, Style: 1/2 inch
The yoga mat is not one of those heavy-duty ones. It’s quite light, but it tends to crease easily and takes a long time to return to its original shape after being rolled or folded.

Great Mat!
Color: Boysenberry, Style: 1/2 inch
I’ve been using this mat 4+ days a week for 2.5 months and it is durable and comfortable. I use it for yoga, sculpt, and Pilates. It’s held up during burpees, pushups, and plenty other moves that I half expected would tear the mat, but it’s held up great. It also gets wiped down with a disinfectant after each use. Still like new. Great price too!
