Morgan shows how Italians of all classes coped with the extraordinary pressures of wartime living, both on the military and home fronts, and how their experience of the country at war eventually distanced them from the dictator and his fascist regime. Looking beyond Mussolini's initial fall from power, Morgan examines how the Italian people responded to the invasion, occupation, and division of their country by Nazi German and Anglo-American forces - and how crucial the experience of this period was in shaping Italy's post-war sense of nationhood and transition to democracy. 606 $aFascism$zItaly$xHistory 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$zItaly 607 $aItaly$xHistory$y1922-1945 607 $aItaly$xPolitics and government$y1943-1947 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aFascism$xHistory. 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945 676 $a940.53/45 700 $aMorgan$b Philip$f1948-$0863317 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450663203321 996 $aThe fall of Mussolini$91927125 997 $aUNINA
