Ebook: The Prison Notes

Introduction
The following Introduction was written by Faust Bradesco, a Romanian
Legionary veteran and intellectual who continued defending Codreanu’s
legacy in several books after being exiled to France following the Communist
occupation of his homeland, and where he was to spend the remainder of his
life. This Introduction was originally published in the French edition of The
Prison Notes in 1986.

"This short work, already translated into several languages, now brings to
completion in French the knowledge and understanding of the tragic life of
Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, the legendary leader of the Romanian Legionary
Movement, otherwise known as the Iron Guard.
It is concerned with a very short period of time – 19 April to 19 June 1938 –
during which he was incarcerated in the prison of Jilava in the most vile and
discouraging conditions." (Continues on page 1)
