The American heritage picture history of World War II

by CL Sulzberger and the editors of American heritage ; editor in charge David G McCullough ; pictorial commentary Ralph K Andrist
Book - 1995

Here the sweep, the drama and the tragedy of the global cataclysm that involved 56 nations are covered with the immediacy and impact that only great pictures can evoke. In planes, and foxholes, desert and jungle, on ships and beaches, the constant focus is on the people involved - the leaders, the fighters, the victims. From the first strike of the Wehrmacht on Poland in 1939 to the Japanese surrender on the deck of the Missouri in 1945, the war is shown and described so that its significance is seen in historical perspective while its human impact is powerfully felt.
