Abstract
The article critically uses the unpublished memoirs of Nellie Driver, Woman District Leader of the Nelson branch of the British Union of Fascists, in order to focus upon the nature of provincial Fascism in one of the main centres of Lancashires's textile industry and also to locate the experience of Fascist activity in the life of an individual. Autobiographies are shown to have both empirical and theoretical value to the historian by informing debates from new perspectives and permitting an insight into the meaning of events and beliefs to an active member of the blackshirt movement.
