History
The long and bloody Battle of Cassino from January to May 1944 came to define the entire brutal Italian campaign of the Second World War. James Holland takes a look at those dark days from both sides, drawing on the very latest academic thinking on how and why it played out as it did and drawing on contemporary sources to evoke a vivid picture of what it was like for the men – and women – caught up in this terrible campaign.
