From May 1915 to October 1917 the armies of Italy and the Austro-Hungarian empire
were locked into a series of twelve battles along the River Isonzo, a sixty-mile front from
the Alps to the Adriatic. The campaign was fought in the most appalling terrain for
combat, with horrendous casualties on both sides, often exceeding those of the more
famous battles of the Great War. Yet this massive struggle is too often neglected in
histories of the war which focus on the fighting on the Western and Eastern Fronts. John
Macdonald, in this accessible and highly illustrated account, aims to set the record
straight. His description of the Isonzo battles, of the battlefields and of the atrocious
conditions in which the soldiers lived and fought is supported by a graphic selection of
original photographs that record the terrible reality of the conflict.
