For get about:
M.E. Moss
A. James Gregor, and
Roger W. Holmes.

The only worthy expositor of Gentile in the English language is H. S. Harris (yeah, the guy who wrote the 2000 page Hegel-book).

My reading list for the angloid would be something like:
1. Start with the "Introduction" to Thought Thinking, edited by Bruce Haddock and James Wakefield
2. Move onto Harris introduction to Genesis and Structure of Society
3a. If you have the philosophical chops for it jump straight into The Theory Of Mind As Pure Act
3b. If not start reading The Social Philosophy of Giovanni Gentile, by H. S. Harris.
4. While reading 3b, start reading some of Gentile's shorter texts from Thought Thinking
I: Start with "The Method of Immanence"
II: Then "The Moral Problem"
III: "Pure Experience and Historical Reality"
IV: and last "Basic Concepts of Actualism"
5. Move onto the main text of Genesis and structure of society. This is Gentile's most important work
6. Then revisit The Theory Of Mind As Pure Act with 4.IV in mind

It would be very difficult to try to summarize his thought in a 4chan post. That's really the kind of thing you need a book for, so it's a good thing that Canadian historian of philosophy H.S. Harris wrote one that contains several hundred pages.
