It began with the German invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939. In the final accounting, it would turn out to be, in both human terms and material resources, the costliest war in history, taking the lives of thirty million people. By the time it came to an end on V-J Day--August 14, 1945--it had involved every major power and become global in its reach.
With unparalleled scholarship and breadth of vision, Gilbert, the official biographer of Winston Churchill as well as one of the leading experts on the Holocaust, weaves together political, military, diplomatic, and civilian elements to provide a global perspective on the war, creating a work that is both a treasure trove of information and a gripping, dramatic narrative. Now, in one brilliant volume, eminent historian Martin Gilbert offers the complete history of the Second World War.
