Knjiga Aleksandra Jankovica Potocnika je prvi celovit opis utrjevanja nekdanje starojugoslovansko-italijanske meje. Potem, ko je v svoji knjigi "Ob stari meji" prof. Tomaz Pavsic opisal samo Rapalsko mejo, ki se je med obema svetovnima vojnama kruto zarezala v slovensko narodnostno ozemlje, dobivamo s knjigo "Rupnikova linija in Alpski zid" se opis njenega utrjevanja. Knjiga predstavlja prvo celovito predstavitev utrdbenega sistema, ki ga je nekdanja kraljevina Jugoslavija gradila, da bi se zascitila pred napadom fasisticne Italije in kasneje tudi Nemcije in ki je po konceptu povsem enak najbolj znanim tovrstnim utrdbam tistega casa. Poda pa tudi obsezen pregled utrdb, ki so izzvale njen nastanek. Gre za znani italijanski Vallo Alpino ali Alpski zid, katerega vzhodni del je potekal prav po slovenskem in deloma hrvaskem ozemlju.

The first ever comprehensive work about fortifications along the former border between then kingdoms of Yugoslavia and Italy. After receiving some valuable archive material via SiteO web site from it's chief director, American historian and writer, Joe Kaufmann, Jankovic Potocnik was able to explore the remnants of the former Yugoslav defence line built in years 1935-1941 against fascist Italy and Germany. Presently located on the territory of the republic of Slovenia this fortified system seemed to be completely forgotten. The author was the first to familiarise world's public with it's existence at the SiteO and later, thanks to the recommendation by Joe Kaufmann, via articles in English Fortress Study Group's magazine "The Fort" and in French "Magazine 39-45". The foreword was written by Miha Naglic.
