Reseña del libro "Rome Rising: Road to Armageddon (en Inglés)"
As 1942 draws to a close the world is still in a state of Chaos with fighting occurring nearly worldwide. The intensity of the fighting seems to grow with each passing day.In the far east there is a growing hope by the Allies that serious cracks are developing in the Japanese plan to dominate the region. Following the triumph battle of Midway, Churchill has released to the Pacific submarines and aircraft carriers previously engaged in supply and defense of the lost island of Malta. The added effect was victory after victory in the region. Never thought possible, teams of American generals and Admirals were working hand in hand with their British counterparts to save China and drive the Japanese back.However, this stood in sharp contrast with the setbacks Hitler was inflicting on Stalin. The port city of Sevastopol had fallen and yet another vicious struggle led by German General Erich von Manstein was being waged in the environs of Leningrad and the far north. On the Eurasian Steppe, rebuilt Panzer Divisions from the winter debacle had sweep Stalin's troops before them all the way to the gates of Stalingrad. It now appears the 1942 German Russian offensive has been stopped; however, Italian sea, air and land forces had just successfully captured much of the Russian Black Sea coast. It would appear that things were looking up for Hitler and that Stalin was in a bad way. Although Stalin was furious with his field commanders for letting so much of the motherland slip out of his hands, he knew winter was coming and with it revenge. Literally millions of Soviet troops and thousands of tanks and planes were standing in the wings preparing for a whole host of offenses. All were backed up with thousands of tons of weapons and supplies courtesy Roosevelt and Churchill. But Hitler's iron grip was beginning to slip. In hundreds of secret conversations criticism was building as growing evidences of secret brutality, excesses and regime incompetence were building. Fuel tanks were near empty, serious raw material shortage were at hand, and everyday and night more British and American bombs fell on German factories and cities. The U-boat blockade appeared to be having no effect(not true). Those in the know recognized the imprint of competent leadership by Generals like Heinz Guderian, who had even managed to turn the Italian military around. Here again things were not what they seemed, for while acquiring German and captured technology and equipment, Italian spies and salvage crews also acquired information. Information these spies recently came into revealed how threatened Italy's survival truly was.Mussolini was keenly aware this information was both dangerous and potentially an avenue to securing the empire he so greatly desired; perhaps even preeminence in the Axis camp. Before he could win the battle in the shadows, his forces must successfully defend the central Mediterranean. If German Admiral Raeder was correct; the Allies would most surely wager everything they had to regain control and destroy Italy. This great challenge began more quickly than Mussolini would have liked. He knew even if they won, it would probably not be enough, but if they lost nothing could save them...
