       | In case there's somebody else who couldn't quickly find what book
       | is this a review of, it's "The Fiume Crisis" with ISBN
       | 9780674244245.
       | 
       | In case somebody is interested in this part of history, here are
       | some Wikipedia pages on Rijeka in this time period that should
       | give some context:
       | 
       | 1776-1918: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corpus_separatum_(Fiume)
       | 
       | 1920-1924: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_State_of_Fiume
       | 
       | 1919-1920:
       | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Regency_of_Carnaro
       | 
       | 1924: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Rome_(1924)
       | 
       | Overall history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Rijeka
       | 
       | As always, be cautious with Wikipedia.

       | 
       | Like when they write about the Battle of Caporetto or the Isonzo
       | river.

           | "Victors write history" is somewhat vapid and quite
           | misleading as an explanation here, because history consists
           | of more than just WW1.
