Description
The Isonzo Campaign: A Forgotten Front in World War I The Italian Front 1915-1918 is a comprehensive account of one of the most overlooked battles of World War I. From May 1915 to October 1917, the armies of Italy and Austria-Hungary clashed in a series of twelve brutal battles along the River Isonzo, resulting in staggering casualties on both sides. This book sheds new light on this pivotal campaign, which is often overshadowed by more famous battles of the Great War. With its graphic selection of original photographs, John Macdonald provides a vivid and unflinching portrayal of the conflict, revealing the harsh realities of life on the battlefield during World War I. A valuable addition to any history buff's bookshelf, this account is highly recommended for anyone seeking to expand their knowledge of the Italian Front and the Great War.
