Description: A Nation Collapses by Elena Agarossi, Harvey Fergusson II Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Drawing on unpublished documents, A Nation Collapses examines the collapse of the Italian fascist regime and Italys unconditional surrender in September 1943. The duplicity and misjudgment surrounding the Italian surrender had tragic consequences for Italy, which immediately faced civil war and a long and brutal conquest by the Allies. Publisher Description A Nation Collapses revises the traditional understanding of a critical moment in the history of World War II: the collapse of the Italian fascist regime and Italys unconditional surrender in September 1943. Drawing on mostly unpublished documents, the book analyses the secret negotiations between Italy and Britain before the overthrow of Mussolini in July 1943 and finds that both parties negotiated in bad faith and with a great deal of duplicity. The Italians therefore both underestimated the extent of the Allies strategic commitment in Italy and promised their conquerors a degree of military assistance which they were in no condition to deliver. The situation disintegrated into a civil war as the Anglo-American military government which controlled southern Italy invaded the German-occupied north. Already traumatized by unconditional surrender, Italy now endured a civil war waged by foreign powers on both sides for twenty long and brutal months.
