Default Hell and High water

I "bought the thing" too, and having skimmed it, it seems to me from first glance that it is a collection of pictures readily available from the National Archives, just that it has one guy putting a story to it. The story seems to be weaved through the interviews of what seems to be 3 or 4 veterans. It just seemed to me that you'd be expecting the next quote to come from someone else, but the same veteran would be quoted again and again from their interviews. Not to demean the testimony of these veterans, but the book seemed a little "thrown together' or basic to me. However, there does not seem to exist very much hardcopy literature on the Italian Campaign, or so my years of searching have told me, but maybe I just haven't found it yet.

Cheers,
Glen.
