"The Germans in the Italian campaign had choreographed one of the most brilliant and terrible retreats in history. 
The advance of the Allies, which should have taken a month, took a year. There was fire in their path. Sappers rode 
the mudguards of trucks as the armies moved forward, their eyes searching for fresh soil disturbances that signalled 
land mines or glass mines or shoe mines. The advance impossibly slow."
Michael Ondaatje, The English Patient, 1992.
