Collection of 37 letters (in original envelopes) to a soldier of Italian descent from Trieste, fighting with the Austro-Hungarian Empire. His name was Ferruccio Cirillo. The letters are from his father and what appears to be his sweetheart. He is based in Vienna. They all date from 1918. What makes this collection interesting is that Trieste became part of Italy after World War 1 and here we have an Italian fighting for Austria-Hungary. m

Set of 5 diaries written by Lieutenant Colonel Luigi Gaioni. These are #4-8 of what appears to be an 8 diary set (or perhaps there were only the 4 because in the beginning he describes how he has to rely on his memory to recall events). He dedicates the diaries to his wife. They are written after the war ended so it is effectively his memoirs during the war. It begins on March 18, 1943 and ends on May 20, 1944. The blank pages of the last diary indicate that this is when he stopped writing. He was in Russia and was a prisoner. M
