"The Eternal City of Rome during the Italian Campaign and Nazi Occupation of 1943-44 is a besieged city. In this perilous wartime setting, Rome is a tinderbox of four conflicting parties: the Allied liberators, the brutal German occupiers, the Vatican and Pope Pius XII, deeply involved in the plot to remove Hitler for power while struggling to save Rome from destruction, and the resolute Partisans."--Page [4] of cover.
