Description: MONTE CASSINO by David Hapgood and David Richardson 1984, First Edition, Congdon & Weed, New York, 269 pages. From the Dust Jacket, “Founded by St. Benedict fourteen centuries before the tragic year, the Abbey of Monte Cassino was Europe’s most illustrious monastery. During the Dark Ages it had preserved much of the West’s written archive. Itself a work of art, the abbey housed countless treasures. On February 15, 1944, American bombers obliterated Monte Cassino…. (This book) is based on recently available information: a British government report kept secret for thirty years (and other military documents now declassified); the monks’ wartime diaries; interviews with participants, including the last surviving officer at German headquarters.” Enhanced with 53 photographs and 5 maps (on the end-pages). Hardcover book in Very Good condition, tight and clean with no marks. Pages are clean and white. Tan covers with gilt titles on the maroon spine are clean and bright; no damage.
