Description

"This book provides a strategic overview of the war that is interweaved with fascinating personal accounts, its campaigns and battles." - Professor Geoffrey Roberts.

In this exciting and illuminating account, Anthony Tucker-Jones explores the major campaigns across the whole Mediterranean during World War II, from the struggle for control of the Suez Canal to the Allied landings in the French Riviera in the summer of 1944. This was America's first foray into the European theater and marked a real turning point in the Allied offensive against Axis powers.

Includes:

  • Battle for Crete
  • The Desert Air War
  • Second Battle of El Alamein
  • Operation Crusader
  • Invasion of Sicily (Operation Husky)

The actions of famous generals are introduced, including Bernard Montgomery and George S. Patton, and how their strategic offensives pushed back Axis forces. Augmented by fascinating photographs and forwarded by Geoffrey Roberts, Emeritus Professor of History at University College Cork, The Battle for the Mediterranean tells the story of an all-encompassing conflict, by land, air and sea.
