Reviews

'Covering all the bases, this is a well-researched and written account of the Riviera theatre of operations. The bibliography is extensive and the author has a commanding knowledge of his subject. [...] should be the definitive volume on the Riviera's World War II experience and is highly recommended.' --Stuart McClung, New York Journal of Books
