This book explores command leadership in Italy during World War II, and how failings in that leadership led to the loss of thousands of additional lives. Errors in strategy, tactics, and operations at campaign command level can clearly be seen in first-hand accounts of the fighting, leading to some surprising conclusions as to the effectiveness of the senior officers in Italy - the two American commanders, Patton and Clark; the two British commanders, Montgomery and Alexander; and the leading German commander, Kesselring.
