ITALIAN COLONIAL TROOPS 1882-1960: Men-at-Arms 544
Italy's part in the "scramble for Africa" from the 1880s saw the steady creation of a large number of native colonial units. In both of Italy's wars against Ethiopia its hardy Eritrean infantry proved to be a major asset. This work explains the history, battles, and the organization of these troops, illustrating the variety of colorful uniforms using new plates and rare photos.
