Book Synopsis
This final book in our three-volume series on WWII Italian Army organisation, uniforms and equipment covers the division of Italy's forces after the Armistice of 1943. Many units were raised by Mussolini's RSI to fight on beside the Germans, with entirely new and often impressive uniforms. Others joined and were equipped by the Allies; and simultaneously, a bitter civil war pitched Fascist security units against the partisan bands of the large and diverse pro-Allied guerrilla movement

Table of Contents
The Italian army and the 1943 armistice; regular army of the Italian Socialist Republic; black brigades; autonomous units; partisans; Italian co-belligerent forces; commentary on colour artwork.
