Looking for suggestions on good books about the Italian Navy in WW2 that are written in English. New to this subject, so any help is appreciated. |

For some introductary style books i recommend : REGIA MARINA- Italian Battleships of WW2 by Ermino Bagnasco & Mark Grossman. Also Warship Pictorial #23 Italian Heavy Cruisers of WW2. Both are in english with loads of photos & text, hope this helps. |

There is a good web site on the Italian navy. It is regiamarina.net. I hope this helps a little bit. |

I will also suggest you the classic: "The Naval War in the Mediterranean 1940-1943" by Jack Green and Alessandro Massignani and the recent: "Struggle for the Middle Sea" by Vincent P. O'hara hope this will help Arrigo |

"The Italian Navy in World War II" by Marc' Antonio Bragadin is a fine history told from the Italian viewpoint. |

I can recommend Struggle for the Middle Sea as well. I read it recently and was pleased with the information and level of detail it provided. |

The Naval War in the Mediterranean 1940-1943 by Jack Greene and Alessandro Massignani gets my vote too. |
