Summary

The world had not fully recovered from the horror of World War I or the anguish of its catastrophic aftermath, the Great Depression, before an even greater war commenced. The Third Reich of Adolf Hitler threatened to dominate all of Europe, and—as the physicist Albert Einstein rushed to bring to the attention of President Franklin Roosevelt—the limitless destructive power of the atom was well within the reach of Nazi Germany.

World War II, Fourth Edition presents the complete story of America's war in Europe and in the Pacific, from Pearl Harbor to the Normandy invasion to the Japanese surrender aboard the USS Missouri. Complete with full-color and black-and-white photographs and illustrations, full-color maps, and other further resources, this eBook is an invaluable resource for students of the Second World War.
