THE PRICE OF INNOCENCE
(Maurice G Nash)
Few men have survived to write a first-hand account of the brutality of the 2nd World War.
Maurice Gorham Nash has never forgotten July 1944 when, in a remote area of Tuscany, he stumbled on the immediate aftermath of the massacres of 187 Italian citizens.
A half-century later he set out to investigate what largely remained one of the most moving, untold atrocities of the war in Italy.
