Naval operations in the Adriatic

#1

I am looking for a book (in English or Italian) describing in some detail Italian naval operations in the Adriatic Sea (especially northern/central Adriatic and against Yugoslav partisans) during WWII. Can anyone suggest a book? Is Rastelli/Freivogel's "Adriatic Naval War 1940-45" good in this respect?

Review of the book here:

I own it and it is very in-depth. There is also lots of coverage of Italian operations. There isn't anything better out there in English for this subject.

You can find many details about the activity of the Marina Nazionale Repubblicana in the Adriatic in: Enrico Cernuschi, Vincent P. O'Hara, "Black Phoenix: History and Operations of the Marina Repubblicana 1943-1945", https://www.amazon.com/Black-Phoenix-Op ... 0615978614.
