The Italian Resistance
註釋One of the enduring myths about World War Two is that only the Allies liberated occupied Europe. Many countries had anti-fascist Resistance movements, and Italy's was one of the biggest and most politically radical yet it remains relatively unknown outside of its own homeland. Within Italy many plaques and streets commemorate the actions of the partisans -- a spontaneous movement from below that grew as Mussolini's dictatorship unravelled. Led by radical left forces, the Resistance trod an uneasy line between fighting their enemies at home and maintaining their alliances abroad. Essential for courses on World War Two and European history, Tom Behan uses unpublished archival material and interviews with surviving partisans to tell an inspiring story of liberation.
