In “The Day of Battle,” Rick Atkinson picks up where he left off in “An Army at Dawn,” his history of the North African campaign, which won the Pulitzer Prize in A planned third. Now, in The Day of Battle, he follows the strengthening American and British armies as they invade Sicily in July and then, mile by bloody mile, fight their way north toward Rome. The Italian campaign’s outcome was never certain; in fact, Roosevelt, Churchill, and their military advisers engaged in heated debate about whether an invasion of the so-called soft underbelly of Europe was even a good idea. Yet Rick Atkinson accomplishes both with The Day of Battle: The War in Sicily and Italy, His previous work, An Army at Dawn, won the Pulitzer in history, but Atkinson has managed to set the bar even higher with his second installment in "The Liberation Trilogy." He descends upon each battlefield with rich historical perspective, tactical analysis, and chilling frontline observations.
