Description

On July 10, 1943, the largest amphibious invasion ever mounted took place, larger even than the Normandy invasion eleven months later. Operation HUSKY, as it was known, was enormously complex, involving dramatic battles on land, in the air, and at sea. Based on battlefield studies and new research, James Holland's Sicily '43 offers a vital new perspective on a major turning point in World War II. The characters involved were as colorful as the battles, giving readers an intimate sense of what occurred in July and August 1943. Emphasizing the significance of Allied air superiority, Holland overturns conventional narratives and fills a major gap in the narrative history of World War II.
