Strawson's fine account of the WWII Italian Campaign. It is an examination of the justification for opening up a major new front against against Hitler and the effects of doing so, the consequences of the important tactical decisions made by politicians and generals, the hostility between Patton and Montgomery, and the larger disagreement betwen the US and Britain. The book also looks at the role of Allied and German intelligence-gathering and its affect on the course of the campaign, and the Italian overthrow of Mussolini.
