Review

"In a series of very brief, very clear summaries of other writer's books, John Keegan expounds how views of the war have changed as more evidence about how it was waged have gone public. Refreshing."

"The distinguished military historian John Keegan has, in one slim volume, written an indispensable overview of World War II and a survey of the literature on the conflict."

Publisher's note

Although fifty years have passed since the end of World War II, there has as yet been no definitive history of that conflict. Existing histories have raised as many questions as they answer: Did President Roosevelt have foreknowledge of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor? Might bombing the Auschwitz railroad have impeded the course of the Holocaust? Now one of our most esteemed military historians assesses the literature that has emerged from World War II - and the controversies that have arisen from that literature - in a book that combines stunning erudition with crisp prose and highly personal discernment.

With the same erudition, discernment, and crisp prose that made his A History of Warfare an international bestseller, Keegan surveys the literature of World War II, identifying the works he finds most important and illuminating while examining the sometimes savage controversies raised by two generations of the war's historians.
