World
War II
was truly a global war that had a major impact on the
lives of people in almost every nation on Earth. It is critical to understand
the causes and consequences of this defining event of the twentieth century, as
its effects still reverberate politically, economically, and militarily in the
United States, Middle East, Europe, and Africa
today.
World War
II
explores the elements of the war in broadly chronological
order, not just on the battlefields but also on home fronts around the world.
Sidebars highlight key people and events, eyewitness accounts, technological
developments, and battle tactics. Numerous full-color maps, charts, and
historical photos complete this authoritative account for younger readers.
