Paperback. Zustand: New. Monte Cassino opens in the cold Italian winter of 1943-44. Germany would lose the war, but they still held much of Italy, leaving the Allies to fight their way north to capture Rome,a route no army had taken since Hannibal traversed the Alps to avoid it. And overlooking the only possible passage stood the ancient Abbey of Monte Cassino. The ultimate decision to bomb Monte Cassino was one of the most controversial,and tragic,events of World War II. The combat that followed was just as tragic: Soldiers from more than a dozen nations fought through that savage winter in a ferocious battle that allowed no advance or retreat. Here Hapgood and Richardson examine the military operations and political machinations that led inexorably to the bombing, explore the personalities of all involved, and in a new afterword reflect on its lingering consequences. This is an epic tale of men,and monks,at war.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good+. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good+. First Edition; First Printing. A first edition/first printing in Very Good+ condition with minimal shelfwear in alike dust-jacket with similar wear; Monte Cassino is a topography of blood and bone. The landscape is pitted with craters, gouged by shells and bombs, scarred by land mines and machine-gun fire.

For many, it is the site of the greatest slaughter of World War II--the Battle of Monte Cassino, which claimed over 15,000 Allied lives.For Hapgood and Richardson, the tragedy of Monte Cassino was also a subject of fascination. They traveled to the mountain and recorded their impressions in this book. From the shattered monastery to the blasted towns below, the authors evoke the emotional power of the place. They tell the story of the battle, the heroism of the men who fought there, and the cost of victory.Monte Cassino is a gripping account of one of the great conflicts of the twentieth century and a testament to the human spirit.; 8vo; 269 pages.…
