    What Hasnt Been Written About Cassino?  Apparently a lot.....
  

*by W***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 30, 2013*

Peter Caddick-Adams has produced an outstanding account that adds much to the historiography of the Monte Cassino battles.  One critical fact that distinguishes his coverage from previous authors is that it is abundantly clear that Caddick-Adams has walked the ground itself.  Thus, he has an appreciation for the terrain over which the battle was fought.The book is organized into fifteen chapters, which include: 1 - Roads to Cassino (22 pages); 2 - An Italian Winter (20 pages); 3 - France Fights On (20 pages); 4 - A Very British Way of War (25 pages); 5 - Blood and Guts (30 pages); 6 - How to Destroy a Monastery (27 pages); 7 - The Empire Strikes Back (15 pages); 8 - Man Versus Nature (20 pages); Kiwis at Cassino (16 pages); 10 - Poland the Brave (15 pages); 11 - Winning Cassino - (11 pages); 12 - Trouble in the Liri (16 pages); 13 - Pursuit from Cassino (23 pages); 14 - Roads to Rome (14 pages); and 15 - Roads from Rome (13 pages).Many of the chapters (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10) focus on one of the national contingents (Italian, French, British, American, Indian, New Zealand and Polish respectively) that battled at Cassino while others (11 - 15) deal primary with tactical and operational level events.Of particular note is the author's lack of discernable national bias (which not all historians are able to suppress).  He seems to understand the weaknesses and strengths of all of the combatants, explaining events with great detail and objectivity.  In addition, he is able to accomplish this by using clear prose that reads well.  Those unfamiliar with World War 2 and the Cassino battles in particular will enjoy his writing style, which is not encumbered by excessive use of specialized military terminology.End notes take up a hefty forty-nine pages, beginning on p. 297 and ending on p. 346.  The 24 page bibliography includes sources from German, U.S., British, and Canadian archival collections.  The author also makes very good use of student experience papers written soon after the war by American officers who fought at Cassino as well as several insightful research papers authored by recent attendees of the U.S. Army War College, U.S. Navy War College and U.S. Air Force School of Advanced Airpower Studies.There are rather fewer maps (only six) that I would personally prefer.  They are located up front, between pages vii and xii, covering the entire theater, Allied and German defensive lines 1943 - 44; French, US and British attacks during the first battles of Cassino, the Cassino Town and Monastery, 1944; Liri Valley Offensive, 11 - 26 May 1944; and the Advance to Rome, 20 May - 5 June 1944.I highly recommend this book to all readers even remotely interested in the topic.  I liked it so much that I bought a second copy for a friend!

    The Very Best So Far
  

*by H***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 25, 2021*

Over the past two years I have read around a dozen good histories of the Italian campaign South of Rome. This is the best. The breath and scope is amazing. The footnotes themselves are as detailed and interesting as the narrative. I only wish the illustrations were as easy to access and come back to. Read it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Extremely well researched.

I am writing a movie script about the battles at Monte Cassino. This book provides a great explanation about why this campaign was so difficult for the Allies.
