What is WWII : Time-Life history of the second World War about?

World War I had brought an uneasy "peace resting on quicksand." This book traces the gradual sinking of that peace into the quicksand of an inevitable second war, with the rise of Hitler, Franco, Mussolini, and the Soviet state in Europe and the imperial design of the Japanese empire in Asia. With hundreds of archival photographs, this epic book pulls no punches. The horror and tragedy of the Holocaust is an obbligato theme against the battles that marked this time of terror and courage. Step by step, day by day, month by month, the world leaders on both sides threw their youth into battle as generals planned attacks and counterattacks on land, sea, and air. Here are the historic moments--Dunkirk, Midway, the Philippines, Iwo Jima, Normandy, the Battle of the Bulge--heroism and foolhardiness played out against a panoply of opposing causes and unlikely allies. The grandeur, triumph, and agonies of this monstrous conflict are described and shown in the type of detail only the resources of Time-Life could supply. A monumental account and the definitive description of the last Great War. 9" x 11". Black-and-white photographs.
