| Description: |
This study looks at how the British authorities used World War II Italian prisoners of war as a labour force, a source of military intelligence and as a political warfare tool before their final repatriation in 1946-47. |
| Synopsis: |
During World War II, British and Imperial forces captured more than half a million Italian soldiers, sailors and airmen. Although a symbol of military success, these prisoners created a multitude of problems for the authorities throughout the war. This book looks at how the British addressed these problems and turned liabilities into assets by using the Italians as a labour force, a source of military intelligence and as a political warfare tool before their final repatriation in 1946-47. |
