Anzio - before World War II a tiny beach resort south of Rome; every since, a symbol of danger and desperation, of grim survival, of high-level military bungling and confusion. Everybody who remembers the war remembers the Anzio beachhead with special vividness. In clear and compelling detail, this book recounts the two battles at Anzio - the high-level plans, debates and doubts of the politicians and the generals, and the muddy, bloody struggle of the GIs on the beach. While U S Fifth Army (really an international force) hesitated ashore, the Germans reacted swiftly. "I had hoped we were hurling a wildcat onto the shore," said Winston Churchill, "but all we got was a stranded whale." The Allies clawed frantically to retain their foothold, as German soldiers, tanks and guns ringed the beach. Within a month of landing, Allied casualties reached the 19,000 mark.
