I am doing a large research project on the Italian military during WWI, and I am having trouble with finding good sources. Does anyone here know of any good websites/articles/etc.? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!

Don't know about websites or articles but The White War by Mark Thompson was an excellent read on the war in Italy (which I knew next to nothing about). His bibliography is 17 pages long. His acknowledgements mention this site
http://1914-1918.invisionzone.com/forums/index.php
Ok, that site appears to be UK centric but it does have a subsection on Italy.

This pdf looks at the weapons used by the Italian Army in WW1:

It is in Italian.

I agree, that's a good show and very informative, plus it won't end till sometime in 2018 or 2019.

Thanks for the advice guys. BTW, I'd suggest checking out "Sardinian Brigade" by Emilio Lussu (https://www.amazon.ca/Sardinian-Brigade-Emilio-Lussu/dp/1853753602), IMO it is better than "All Quiet on the Western Front".
