Victory In Italy - Neil Orpen

Victory In Italy by Neil Orpen tells the full story not only of South African units of 6th SA Armoured Division but also of 24 Guards Brigade, 4/13 Frontier Forces Rifles of the Indian Army, American and other units who were proud to serve under Maj-Gen Evered Poole's command on the long, bitter road from the final battle of Cassino in May 1944 to the German capitulation in Italy a year later.

The 6th South African Armoured Division proved during the Italian campaign, where it was one of the finest and, at the time, one of the most cosmopolitan and most powerful of all Allied divisions in 8th army or 5th US Army.
