The Savage Storm: The Battle for Italy 1943
Wednesday 4 October SOLD OUT!
Castle Hill Baptist Church
10.30am
Historian, broadcaster and author James Holland takes a fresh look at the crucial first months of the Italian campaign, explaining why the campaign took place, the wider context in which it was fought and the constraints and prime issues affecting both sides. He also considers the conditions in which it was fought and what it was like for those involved, whether Allied or German troops or Italian civilians.
The Italian campaign was particularly brutal, the scale of destruction immense, and the trauma for all those caught up in this savage storm, truly terrible.
The Savage Storm is an eye-opening exploration of the devastating and destructive nature of war in Europe.
