The World War II Reader by Robert Leckie
From Pearl Harbor to D-Day and beyond and all-star examination of the conflict that shaped the modern world from World War I Magazine. It was a war that defined a generation of the world, a war that saw America transform itself from an inward-looking isolationist nation to an arsenal of democracy whose reach spanned the globe. The World War I Reader presents in one extraordinary book the thrilling story of the greatest generation in its finest hour in the best essays from the world's most distinguished historians compiled by World War I Magazine, the only magazine that brings the history and drama of the 20th Century's defing conflict to life. The World War I Reader includes insightful essays on the larger-than-life leaders who made life-and-death decisions that shaped grand strategy and crucial battles. In addition, this book cuts through the fog of war and presents though-provoking revelations of little known events that had far-reaching consequences, including the Niihau Incident, that tragically affected the fate of Japanese-Americans in Hawaii and mainland America. The World War I Reader is a must-have for every history enthusiast, and for the person serching for the one book that not just tells the story of America's greatest conflict, but makes World War I come vividly alive as if it happened yesterday.| SKU | Unavailable |
