by Victor Davis Hanson (Author)
A comprehensive account of World War II by America's preeminent military historian and author of The Dying Citizen.
"Breathtakingly magisterial." --Wall Street Journal
World War II was the most lethal conflict in human history. Never before had a war been fought on so many diverse landscapes and in so many different ways, from rocket attacks in London to jungle fighting in Burma to armor strikes in Libya.
The Second World Wars examines how combat unfolded in the air, at sea, and on land to show how distinct conflicts among disparate combatants coalesced into one interconnected global war.
An authoritative history of astonishing breadth, The Second World Wars offers a stunning reinterpretation of history's deadliest conflict.
