An intimate history of the most important month of the Second World
War - perhaps the century - as experienced by those who lived
through it, completely based on their diaries, letters and memoirs.
At the beginning of November 1942, it looked as if the Axis powers
could win the war; at the end of that month, it was obviously just
a matter of time before they would lose. In between came
el-Alamein, Guadalcanal, the French North Africa landings, the
Japanese retreat in New Guinea, and the Soviet encirclement of the
German 6th Army at Stalingrad. In this innovatively kaleidoscopic
and riveting historical marvel, Peter Englund reduces these
epoch-making events to their basic component: the individual
experience. In thirty memorable days we meet characters including a
Soviet infantryman at Stalingrad; an Italian truck driver in the
North African desert; a partisan in the Belarussian forests; a
machine gunner in a British bomber; a twelve-year-old girl in
Shanghai; a university student in Paris; a housewife on Long
Island; a prisoner in Treblinka; Albert Camus, Vasily Grossman, and
Vera Brittain - forty characters in all. We also witness the launch
of SS James Oglethorpe; the fate of U-604, a German submarine; the
building of the first nuclear reactor; and the making of
Casablanca. Not since Englund's own The Beauty and the Sorrow has a
book given us one of the most dramatic periods of human history in
all its immensity and emotional range.

designed his unique lightweight, airtight luggage in 1854 and

Exploring the history from traditional box-making to the revolution
of the stackable trunk to modern-day artistic collaborations, the
book captures the story and craftmanship behind this status symbol
and how the luggage continues to define the spirit of travel. From
the unmistakable Monogram canvas to the unpickable lock, the

Lagerfeld, Kim Jones and a global empire that remains as deeply

ends badly, and the Chief is falsely convicted of murder. For Sally
