Query: What a great story with some unique insights

I really enjoyed this book. I have read many WWII books, but never had the insight into the Russian front like this work has provided. This work really makes you understand the evils of both Communism and Nazism. One also gets a great insight of what it was like living in Italy during this timeframe. Dr. Corti did a great job creating this historical fiction account. The characters by the end felt like family. I felt like I learned a lot while reading a very enjoyable story. These are the type of books that should be read in history classes at university's.
