This compelling history, available at The Bookish Owl, delves into why the Italian Royal Armed Forces and Fascist regime faltered so profoundly in warfare, a domain central to their identity. Discover how economic fragility, Mussolini’s strategic miscalculations, and the broader failures of the Axis war effort contributed to Italy’s downfall. Knox meticulously examines Italian military culture, revealing how it made humiliation almost inevitable, showcasing a regime unable to grasp modern warfare and mobilize effectively. Understand the reasons behind the Italian army’s premature dissolution, a stark contrast to the resilience of Germany and Japan. Essential reading for WWII history buffs.
