A magisterial, single-volume history of the greatest conflict the
world has ever known by our foremost military historian.
The Second World War began in August 1939 on the edge of Manchuria and ended
there exactly six years later with the Soviet invasion of northern
China. The war in Europe appeared completely divorced from the war
in the Pacific and China, and yet events on opposite sides of the
world had profound effects. Using the most up-to-date scholarship
and research, Beevor assembles the whole picture in a gripping
narrative that extends from the North Atlantic to the South Pacific
and from the snowbound steppe to the North African Desert.
Although
filling the broadest canvas on a heroic scale, Beevor's The Second
World War never loses sight of the fate of the ordinary soldiers
and civilians whose lives were crushed by the titanic forces
unleashed in this, the most terrible war in history.
