Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 In June, the Italian government delivered a devastating report on the state of their nation. The country was corrupt, with inefficient bureaucrats and military leaders. They wanted peace, at any price. #2 After the meeting, Mussolini was taken away and detained. He was moved to an isolated hotel high in the Abruzzi mountains east of Rome. He thought about writing a memoir about exile, like Napoleon while on St Helena. #3 In Rome, the King asked Marshal Pietro Badoglio, hero of the Ethiopian war, to form a new, non-Fascist government. The three terse messages that were broadcast on the radio said that the King had accepted Mussoliniâs resignation and that the war would continue on the side of Germany. #4 Fascist Italy was a dictatorship that disenfranchised women, who were then considered incapable of great spiritual ideas. They were also not allowed to vote, except for once in a plebiscite to endorse Mussoliniâs regime.
