U.K. Harper Collins. 2003. Hardcover with dust jacket, 37cm. Book, A sizeable book indeed (will need to go in a 5kg) 254 crisp pp. World War II was undeniably the most important and far-reaching conflict in the history of the world, affecting nearly every corner of the globe with new weapons and methods of destruction, and involving immense armies, navies, and air force battalions from the United States, the Soviet Union, Germany, Japan, Great Britain, China, Italy, and many other nations large and small. The war that raged on land, sea, and in the air directly affected the lives of millions of people around the globe, with huge loss of life and damages to health, homes, and communities. The Atlas of the Second World War plots, on the ground, at sea, and in the air, the exact course of World War II -- including the political, economic, and strategic backgrounds involved. The finest, specially designed cartography is combined with narratives of every significant event and region involved, making this atlas the definitive account of the greatest conflict in world history. Excellent/Very Good.
