EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph print by G.H. Davis captures the natural defenses of El Agheila, a pivotal location in Libya during the Second World War. El Agheila, with its strategic position along the North African coast, was where Erwin Rommel, the German commander, planned to make his final stand against the Allied forces. The terrain of El Agheila is naturally fortified, with a narrow bottleneck entrance, expanses of salt marshes, towering sand dunes, and deep wadis. The map inset in the photograph illustrates the intricacies of the El Agheila landscape, highlighting the challenges faced by both the Axis and Allied forces during the Battle of Sidra. The Italian presence at El Agheila is marked by Mussolini's marble arch and the El Agheila fort, visible in the inset photos. These structures served as symbols of Italian power and control over the region. The Battle of El Agheila, fought in 1942, was a turning point in the North African Campaign, ultimately leading to the retreat of the Axis forces and the advance of the Allied forces towards Tunisia. This photograph print offers a glimpse into the historical significance of El Agheila and the strategic considerations that shaped the course of the Second World War in North Africa. The natural defenses of El Agheila, with its bottleneck entrance, salt marshes, sand dunes, and deep wadis, played a crucial role in the battle, making it a fascinating study in military history.
