Synopsis

A reissue of the 1952 translation published by Andrew Melrose Ltd. Vindicating the Italian navy in World War II, Borghese, an Italian naval commander, explains the numerous challenges presented to Italian seamen and their successes in spite of impediments, particularly in the Gondar and ScirT operations. The author's comments reflect his nationalism, and this history of the Tenth Light Flotilla emphasizes the duty felt by the seamen involved as evidenced by diaries and letters. No bibliography or index. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
