ROME TO THE PO RIVER: The 362nd Infantry Division, 1944-45

1-236190

German Infanterie-Division 362's commander, Heinz Greiner, describes the division's actions in Italy from 1944 to 1945. From the battle at Anzio through the various mountain defense lines to the ultimate end of the war in Northern Italy, the book offers a commander's eye-view of the threats, strategy, delaying actions, and counterattacks of the unit facing Allied air and ground pressures. Originally published in German as part of Wehrmacht im Kampf series, but translated here, it provides a thorough account of the reestablishment, training, and combat performance of a typical German division.
