    Abstract

    This article explores the racist ideas of Admiral Barry Domvile, a pro-Nazi activist in interwar Britain who admired Hitler and the Third Reich and founded 'The Link' organisation. After the War, he was also an early exponent of Historical Revisionism, seeking to 'revise' and reinvent history from an extreme rightwing viewpoint.
