The explosive story of World War II’s bloodiest beachhead—where everything failed but courage.

‘THIS IS A BASTARD OF A PLACE...’

said a soldier on the Anzio beachhead. This was the bitter truth. What started as an easy victory turned abruptly into a massacre. Over 18,000 Allied soldiers were wounded and 4,400 killed in the early months of 1944

First published in 1961, this book, by a man who was there to the very end, tells the whole, shocking story.

“Explains in vivid detail...what the soldiers...and one general can be proud of and what other generals need to explain.”—LIFE

“Must reading”—New York Times
