“Breathtakingly magisterial.” ―Wall Street Journal World War II was the most lethal conflict in human history. A comprehensive account of World War II by America’s preeminent military historian and author of The Dying Citizen. Never before had a war been fought on so many diverse landscapes and in so many different ways, from rocket attacks in London to jungle fighting in Burma to armor strikes in Libya. The Second World Wars examines how combat unfolded in the air, at sea, and on land to show how distinct conflicts among disparate combatants coalesced into one interconnected global war.
