The method of writing military history has undergone a number of changes over the last half-century, filling in quite a few previously neglected gaps in this area of Italian historiography. This essay reviews the rationale and choices made by the editors and authors of a volume devoted to the modern age. The volume is published in a series dedicated to providing a scholarly updated picture of the ongoing connection between the Italian population and war, military culture and institutions; a state of affairs long misrepresented by nationalistically biased reconstructions or, vice versa, challenged by stereotypes resulting from simplifications and very partial readings; these have been mostly rectified by present-day historians.
Keywords: Wars, armies, history of the ancient Italian states, military historiography
