Dark Navy: The Italian Regia Marina and the Armistice of 8 September 1943 ReviewThis nifty work by O'Hara and Cernuschi tells the story of the Royal Italian Navy during the armistice of September 1943, as the subtitle suggests; yet the development of the intricate facts that led to the armistice do not just reside in the background: the "second" book is in fact an accurate history of the armistice itself that is tightly intertwined with the naval narrative. Moreover, the whole account is not just a summary of the most modern studies on the topic, presented in a form palatable to English readers; on the contrary the book offers an innovative and somehow unconventional view of those still controversial events.
The narrative has been enlivened by the insertion of selected anecdotes, which highlight the psychology of the drama's protagonists and clarify the atmosphere of those months better then lengthy discourses could have done.
Invaluable are the appendices, which reveal many little-known facts and untold stories of the naval units.
Worth mentioning are not only the pictures (some rare), but the three maps as well. These latter masterly show both the situation and the deployment of naval and ground units along and on the Italian peninsula (on which are clearly shown the main railroads and the mountain passes, so as to let the reader understand the problems faced by Italians, Germans and Allies with communications and movement).
A book which is a perfect complement of O'Hara's "Struggle for the Middle Sea", in order to better comprehend the turning point of the war in the Mediterranean.Dark Navy: The Italian Regia Marina and the Armistice of 8 September 1943 Overview
