Description
This compact gift book takes thirty of World War II's most significant clashes, both the famous and the lesser known, and presents their stories in a concise, easy-to-digest format, accompanied by beautiful Osprey artwork plates in full color that illustrate a key moment in each battle.
World War II was the single greatest conflict the world has ever known, fought in theaters all around the globe, and many of its battles--Stalingrad, Monte Cassino, the Battle of Britain--are household names. While the Western Front in Europe is often what first comes to mind, bitter and bloody battles were also fought in Eastern Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Pacific, on land, at sea, and in the air, and their many stories help illuminate both the scale and the varying character of the conflict.

I really found this book interesting. The battles are set out in order, each comprising of a short but detailed summary and then a fabulous illustration.
For such a small book it concisely provides clear information of all the major battles of WWII. This would be perfected for students beginning to study the subject who need a clear timeline and context to help them place other events and sources. I would recommend that this could be used effectively in an educational setting.
Overall, excellent.
I was given a ARC by NetGalley, all opinions are my own.
