Sven Hassel and the few surviving men of his unit are posted to Italy, where the armies are locked in battle around the ancient hilltop monastery of Monte Cassino. Hitler has ordered that every position must be held until the last, and every lost position recaptured by counter-attack. In the face of overwhelming Allied firepower, Sven and his mates cling to the mountainside knowing they cannot defy the odds for ever. From no-holds-barred descriptions of the frontline combat to partisan attacks and adventures in Rome on leave, MONTE CASSINO is classic Sven Hassel.
