Back in episode 7, I talked to Alexander Fitzgerald-Black about his MA thesis which focused on the allied air campaign in support of Operation Husky, the invasion of Sicily. Which if you're interested has now been released as a book 'Eagles over Husky: The Allied Aire Forces In The Sicilian Campaign, 14 May to 17 August 1943'.
Alex and I have kept in touch and always said we should do another episode together discussing the Mediterranean campaign.
I was struggling to pin down a topic, when Alex suggested I read Douglas Porch's book 'The Path To Victory: The Mediterranean Theater in WWII', which focuses on the Mediterranean theatre as a whole. It was a light bulb moment for me, so we've decided to have a look at the Mediterranean Strategy.
