About the Book

Walk alongside an Italian POW in this first-hand account of his harrowing quest home in the last days of WWII in Europe


In the aftermath of the Armistice of 1943, Corporal-Major Edvino Raseni found himself caught in the crossfire of World War II, fighting alongside the Italian Partisans until his capture by the Germans. Sent to a labor camp near Heidelberg, he managed to survive and began the arduous journey back to his homeland in the spring of 1945. This gripping account, taken from Raseni's own diary, reveals the harrowing details of his long, perilous trek through Germany, Austria, and Italy amidst the chaos of war.


As the fighting rages on around him, Raseni must navigate his way through a landscape ravaged by air raids, fierce battles, and enemy resistance. Readers will be transported to the heart of the conflict, witnessing the courage and resilience of a man determined to return to his family.


Join Edvino Raseni on his extraordinary journey in this first-hand account, lovingly translated from Italian to English by his niece, Maria Xenia Wells.

Cammina accanto a un prigioniero di guerra italiano in questo resoconto di prima mano della sua straziante ricerca a casa negli ultimi giorni della seconda guerra mondiale in Europa


All'indomani dell'armistizio del 1943, il caporale maggiore Edvino Raseni si trovò coinvolto nel fuoco incrociato della Seconda Guerra Mondiale, combattendo a fianco dei partigiani italiani fino alla sua cattura da parte dei tedeschi. Spedito in un campo di lavoro in Germania, riuscì a sopravvivere e iniziò l'arduo viaggio di ritorno in patria nel 1945. Questo avvincente racconto, tratto dal diario dello stesso Raseni, rivela i dettagli strazianti del suo lungo e pericoloso viaggio attraverso Germania, L'Italia nel caos della guerra.


Mentre i combattimenti infuriano intorno a lui, Raseni deve farsi strada attraverso un paesaggio devastato da incursioni aeree, feroci battaglie e resistenza nemica. I lettori si sentiranno trasportati e saranno testimoni del coraggio e della resilienza di un uomo determinato a tornare dalla sua famiglia.


Unisciti a Edvino Raseni nel suo straordinario viaggio in questo racconto di prima mano, amorevolmente tradotto dall'italiano all'inglese da sua nipote, Maria Xenia Wells.
