Synopsis "The Battle of Monte Cassino"

Melchior Wańkowicz's The Battle of Monte Cassino is a unique contribution to the history of World War II, indeed the history of war in general. Composed by the Polish master of reportage, this book provides the reader with an exhaustive history of one of the greatest triumphs of Polish arms: the conquest of the German redoubt of Monte Cassino, after months of intense fighting, which provided the Allies with an open road for their progress through the Italian peninsula and, finally, to victory over the Nazis in Europe. The history of the Battle of Monte Cassino (17 January -- 19 May 1944), centered on the Benedictine cloister of the same name, which was a key sector of the Nazi Army's 'Gustav Line' of defense. Besides the history of the long Allied siege and the eventual victory won through the efforts of General Anders' II Polish Corps, Wańkowicz provides an on-the-spot account of the battle, at which he was present, setting the reader in the very midst of operations by his thorough and lively interviews with the soldiers who took part in it.
