Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

There is a popular notion that the Italian armed forces of the
Second World War were an inferior fighting force. Despite the vast
numbers taken prisoner, detailed studies of the experiences of
these soldiers remain relatively uncommon and the value of this
group to furthering our understanding of the Italian experience of
war under Fascism is also rarely acknowledged. The existence in the
National Archives of hundreds of pages of transcripts of covert
British surveillance of Italian POWs has made it possible to engage
with their experiences and opinions in much greater depth. The
euphemistically termed 'Special Reports' present historians with a
unique insight into how all levels of Italian soldiery viewed
Fascist Italy's experience of war, 1940-1943. This book examines
reactions to Italian political leadership, the progress of the war,
as well as Italian soldiers' 'everyday' views on sex, war, the
enemy, death, food, their allies, bravery, race, and killing. These
fascinating documents reveal the complexity of the outlook of these
men, which persistent - and influential - national stereotypes and
historiographical trends fail to acknowledge.
