Overview

World War II was the most intensively photographed conflict in history. Military and press photographers, propagandists, camera-wielding soldiers, and civilians all took the opportunity to record the tumultuous events of 1939-1945. From the mass suffering to the individual heroism, the cruelty to the humanitarianism, the misery to the hope, World War II: A Photographic History features the images and the stories that document this extraordinary period. With its wealth of memorable images, this truly comprehensive book provides an unrivalled overview of a time when three-quarters of the globe went to war.
-- Features nine hundred clearly captioned images selected from a wide variety of sources, many of which are seen here for the first time
-- Every major theater of conflict is covered extensively, from the icy seas of the Arctic Circle to the jungles of the South Pacific, and from the deserts of North Africa to the steppes of Russia
-- Informative, indexed commentary provides historical grounding and summarizes the complex events of the period
