Published in association with Imperial War Museums, this fascinating exploration of World War II sensitively explores history's deadliest conflict. Packed with photographs, maps, and detailed cross-sections of tanks, aircraft, submarines, and warships, it outlines key battles and shows how the war affected people across the world--not just the soldiers who fought, but also the children evacuated to the countryside, bombed-out city dwellers, and civilians working in munitions factories.
