Opis

This updated/expanded second edition describes almost 200 WWII sites, including monuments, museums, cemeteries, deportation camps, and battlegrounds. These places are grouped into nineteen tours that begin in Sicily and end in Trieste. Ample historical context is provided. The Allied armies are the focus of the guide, although memorials to the Resistance are noted in chapters 7, 8, 18, 19, and 20. The book closes with selections from the journal of veteran Don Waful, who spent almost a year in Italian POW camps. Waful vividly describes how he and his fellow captives made productive use of their time while held prisoner.
