The Second World War

Author: Antony Beevor

From Hitler's invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939, to V-J day on August 14, 1945, and the war's aftermath, Beevor describes the conflict and its global reach—one that included every major power. The result is a dramatic, single-volume history that provides a remarkably intimate account of the war that, more than any other, still commands attention and an audience.
