Description: Combining authoritative text and bold explanatory graphics 'The World War II Book' explores the causes, key events, and lasting consequences of the Second World War. Using the original, graphic-led approach of the series, entries profile more than 90 of the key ideas and events during and surrounding the conflict - from the rise of Hitler and Fascism in the 1930s to Pearl Harbor, the D-Day landings, and the bombing of Hiroshima to the founding of the State of Israel in 1948.
