Published to commemorate the 75th anniversary of Victory in Europe
Day (May 2020) and Victory in Japan Day (August 2020), this is an
outstanding concise history of the Second World War written by one
of Britain's foremost historians. The second in a two-part history
of the World War II: The Essential History, Vol 2 - From the
Invasion of Sicily to VJ Day 1943-45 examines the Allies' long
struggle for victory against Axis powers which had once seemed
unbeatable. Starting with the Allied invasion of mainland Europe in
the west and ending with the explosion of the atomic bombs on
Hiroshima and Nagasaki in the east we are taken page by page
through the gripping events which eventually saw the end of six
long years of war. The concluding volume in this landmark series
contains some of the most dramatic moments of the war: the use of
so-called V-weapons by the Nazis to maximize civilian casualties;
the unforgettable story of D-Day and the battle for Normandy; the
Battle of the Bulge, which finally broke Axis power in the West;
and the indescribably bloody and brutal race to Berlin that finally
extinguished the Third Reich.
