This is a comprehensive account of the history of the Second World
War, with expert commentary on its political and economic causes,

from survivors of the battles and conflicts, personally interviewed
by the author. It covers every major battle on land, at sea and in
the air, with an expert analysis of the events and descriptions of
weaponry. It features a chronology of the period that helps put all
specific actions of the war into a historical context. It covers

and Japan in 1945. It features eyewitness accounts, maps, battle
plans and hundreds of contemporary photographs that bring the past
to life. All the major turning points of the war are included -
