Hi Malcolm. Among Italian Partisans. Is this a balanced approach in relation to the Partisans and allied participants? Regards, Bob

Hi Malcolm. Among Italian Partisans. Is this a balanced approach in relation to the Partisans and allied participants? Regards, Bob

It certainly is, Bob. With an Italian mother and grandparents involved in the Resistance and a British father who was a soldier with the 8th Army from Sicily to the Alps it might be said to be my mission statement.

After a timeline, glossary, and chapter on unconventional warfare, there's an overview of Allied personnel in the partisan forces, and a chapter on the developing relationship between the Allies and the Resistance that finally helped ensure the victory in May 1945.

A further twelve chapters cover actions of guerilla warfare across German-occupied Italy involving escaped Allied prisoners of war, the Resistance, and British and American special operations.

For example, the first two chapters covered the brave resistance of the famous Cervi family of Gattatico and their assistance to over eighty escaped Allied prisoners of war, while the last chapter covers Operation Tombola and the mixed British/ Italian /Russian Allied Battalion of Major Roy Farran in Operation Tombola.
