An intriguing analysis, Backwater War is an impressive and welcome contribution to personal reading lists and military history collections. This sharp-edged, operationally focused narrative, aimed at a general audience, demonstrates the difficulties the Allies faced during the World War II Italian campaign while arguing strongly that the campaign itself was unnecessary, the result of confused strategic planning. -- Dennis Showalter
