One of the greatest and most terrible years in world history.'This
war has now assumed the character', wrote Benito Mussolini, before
1941 was six months old, 'of a war between two worlds', and the
Italian dictator had rarely predicted more truly. Before the year
had ended, following Hitler's surprise assault on Russia and the
Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, thirty-seven nations were engaged
in an all-out war reminiscent of Armageddon, 'the battle of that
great day of God Almighty'. Richard Collier's latest narrative
spans both this entire, devastating year, as well as the events
that led up to it. From the hunting of the Bismarck through the
North Atlantic to the triumphs of Rommel's Afrika Korps, from the
horror and heroism of besieged Leningrad to the debacles of Hong
Kong, Malaya and the Far East, this is a panorama of truly
world-wide proportions. An unputdownable narrative of the most
extraordinary year in world history, perfect for readers of Max
Hastings, James Holland and Antony Beevor.
