Hey guys I was curious if anyone knew of any good books specifically about Italy's involvement in the war. It's a subject I don't know too much about that I'd love to learn more about! Thanks for your help

I'd be interested in reading more about the Italian side of air combat in North Africa and the Med. You can find a fair amount of reading from the British side, and some from the German side, but I haven't seen much from the Italian point of view.
