Book excerpt: A U.S. Army Signal Corps combat photographer, the author spent the winter of 1944-45 documenting the Gothic Line campaign, the Florence to Bologna to Bolzano operation that held in check 20 or so crack German divisions. He focused particularly on the brutal infantry battles in the Apennies, the desperate fighting of the Fifth Army in the Po Valley, and the severe weather and terrain that challenged the Allied troops. His memories and photographs of the operations reveal the harsh fighting and sometimes poignant moments of the men engaged in a battle that was overwhelmed by events at war's end and has been largely forgotten by history.
