Recenzii
"His study is therefore rewarding for his continuous Franco-Italian perspective and the recurrent use of local documents from the Alpes-Maritimes which gives a profound insight in the complex daily life in South-Eastern France under Italian occupation."--French History
"A well-crafted, clearly organized, and thoroughly researched account of a little known story. It sheds an intriguing and important light, in addition, on the vagaries, complexities, and contradictions of military occupation."--H-War
"The Italian Army's invasions (June 1940 and November 1942) and occupation of southeastern France have been discussed in specialized articles and sometimes mentioned, cursorily, in the general histories of WWII. Until now, however, no study has made these events accessible to both scholars and general readers. . . . Readers are left with a deeper understanding of the context, events, and significance of this important episode of Italian history. Highly recommended."--Choice
"Engagingly written, clear, and undoubtedly helps to fill an important gap in the English-language scholarship on the occupation of France."--H-France Review
"Tells a story previously uncovered in English-language historical literature. [Sica's] book is well written and extensively researched."--NYMAS Review
"Sica clearly and deftly integrates the archival sources together and covers a variety of military, political, socio-economic, and cultural issues. A significant contribution to the historiography of the Second World War."--Ian F. W. Beckett, author of The Making of the First World War
"Emanuele Sica offers a nuanced perspective on the Italian occupation of France based on solid research from both French and Italian archives, shedding light on the complex triangular relationship between the French, Italians, and Germans at war."--Shannon Fogg, author of The Politics of Everyday Life in Vichy France: Foreigners, Undesirables, and Strangers
"A well-crafted, clearly organized, and thoroughly researched account of a little known story. It sheds an intriguing and important light, in addition, on the vagaries, complexities, and contradictions of military occupation."--H-War
"Emanuele Sica, a professor of history at the Royal Military College of Canada, brings us his sweeping knowledge and penetrating analysis to highlight this neglected part of World War II historiography. Mr. Sica is not only well-informed but finely attuned to the historical and cultural crosscurrents which made this a kinder, gentler occupation than its brutal northern counterpart."--Washington Times
