Victory in Italy 15th Army Group's Final Campaign 1945

Richard Doherty

4.9/5 (12609 ratings)

Description:The Italian Campaign is attracting increasing interest. The Author is an expert on his subject with a number of successful published works. This great final battle in Italy will long stand in history as one of the most famous episodes of the Second World War.While the main focus in early 1945 was on the advance to The Fatherland, 15 Army Group's 5th (US) and 8th (British) Armies were achieving remarkable results in Northern Italy. Superb generalship (Truscott - 5th Army and McCreery - 8th Army under General Mark Clark's 15 Army Group), planning, preparation and training outweighed the diversion of major formations to NW Europe, the appalling terrain, harsh climate and general battle fatigue. Equipment was improvised and air/ground operations coordinated to a very high level. In April the Allied offensive surprised the Germans with its speed and brilliance. As a result the Germans capitulated on 2 May before the surrender in Germany. Churchill wrote to Field Marshal Alexander on 29 April 19.45 - 'I rejoice in the magnificently planned and executed operations of 15th Group of Armies'. Praise indeed. This is a masterly description and analysis of this victorious campaign.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
