dates to shipping and so on. Many of the new titles you see around I will carry

MONTE CASSINO THE HARDEST FOUGHT BATTLE OF WORLD WAR II
Book Type: C By Matthew Parker. For five months in 1944, a multinational Allied force pounded away at superbly entrenched German troops in a desperate attempt to force their way through to Rome. Parker's account of this campaign is both disturbing and uplifting. Using interviews with survivors and wartime letters, Parker captures the heroism, horror, and sheer brutality of a battle that rivals Stalingrad for savagery. In the end, the road was cleared and the Germans abandoned Rome, but they reestablished their strong defensive line further north, and they remained ensconced there until the end of the war. An outstanding chronicle illustrating both valor and futility. 448 pp. ![]() |
