Resumen

La carta spagnola. Mussolini e la Spagna durante la Seconda guerra mondiale (1939-1943)

After the costly participation to the Spanish Civil War, Mussolini enters the World War’s adventure, which shall mark his régime’s end. In few months time Franco’s Spain status changed from one of a supposedly yelding satellite of Fascist Italy to one of a country trying to separate its destinies from the Axis powers. What really made the difference was not the Caudillo’s will to follow an impossible dream of imperial achievement, but the appalling Spanish military situation and the hunger of a people exhausted by three years of civil war and, nonetheless, not yet totally tamed.
