A modern account of the 1939-45 conflict with state-of-the-art graphics and hundreds of photographs. Dr. John Ray investigates the social, political and military background to the war and the strengths and weaknesses of the Axis and Allied armed forces. He examines the role of key military and political leaders and never loses sight of the sometimes enormous gulf between how battles were planned and what actually happened on the ground.
