I've only looked at parts of one volume but it gives a useful rundown of each day's events in the various theatres of operations where Italian land, sea and air forces were deployed. |
This source is very useful for giving a detailled view of the war from an Italian point of view. One of the issues it has is that for a given day, it will show data received that day, in numerous cases without precising the event date. So if you want to know what happens in a given day, you should probably check this day and the 2-3 next days, and search for the not dated events.
Some more official Italian WWII books on issu:

Also if you're interested in the Italian navy (even just as a target for RAF and other Allied air units
), I strongly recommend the website:

It is a list of ship histories with many details
