English-speaking readers tend to think of this army in terms of the North African campaign; but far more Italian troops served in other theatres. They invaded, and later bore the major burden of occupying, the Balkan countries; and Italy sent 250,000 troops to fight on the Russian Front. In this, the first of a three-part study, Philip Jowett covers the European theatre - including Russia - from 1940 to Italy's armistice with the Allies in 1943. Many interesting uniforms, a number of them new to most readers, are meticulously illustrated by Stephen Andrew.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip Jowett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 185532864X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781855328648\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Osprey Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/25\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.79h x 7.29w x 0.23d","brand":"Philip Jowett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44069549670655,"sku":"9781855328648","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_93ebdd3a-4027-473d-a9aa-b653b869cc6b.jpg?v=1685425310","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-italian-army-1940-45-1-philip-jowett-9781855328648","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
