A Travel Guide to World War II Sites in Italy: Museums, Monuments, and Battlegrounds

Item Description

This guidebook is the first to describe over one hundred sites dedicated to the memory of the Italian campaign (1943-45), when Allied and German armies battled from one end of Italy to the other. Each chapter provides tours of war museums, monuments, battlegrounds, cemeteries, and/or prison camps in a specific city or area. Examples are Rome, Florence, Bologna, and the Adriatic Coast.  In addition, the book provides directions, maps, a list of hotels, and historical summaries. These features make the book an ideal addition to the standard Italy guides, which seldom mention WWII sites.
