Descrizione del libro

Drawing on unpublished documents, A Nation Collapses examines the collapse of the Italian fascist regime and Italy's unconditional surrender in September 1943. The duplicity and misjudgment surrounding the Italian surrender had tragic consequences for Italy, which immediately faced civil war and a long and brutal conquest by the Allies.
