The most shocking year in history. Week by week, hour by hour.In
his brilliant reconstruction, Richard Collier vividly brings one of
the most momentous years in world history to life once again. This
was a time of blitzkrieg and the Blitz; of the Battle of Britain
and Dunkirk. From the fighting in Finland to the destruction of
Coventry, from the sinking of the French fleet in Oran to the
invasion of Norway, this is history at its most extraordinary and
engaging. By recounting major episodes from the viewpoint of those
actually involved, Collier provides enlightening glimpses of just
what war represented to both the great and to the unknown, and
reveals that while 1940 was a year of incredible folly, it was also
a time of inestimable bravery. Perfect for readers of Anthony
Beevor and Max Hastings, this is an unforgettable book about an
unforgettable year, a year that shaped the world we know today.
