About this ebook
Have you ever wondered. . . Who was the youngest World War II serviceman to fight in battle? How low did the Dambusters fly? How many ships were sunk at Pearl Harbor? From the Battle of Britain to the Siege of Leningrad, the horrors of the Holocaust to the D-Day landings, on the Home Front and abroad, World War II changed the political, social, and economic structure of the world. Through its battles, aircraft, weapons, soldiers, campaigns, and heroes, this comprehensive miscellany is a compelling guide to one of the most destructive and all-encompassing wars the world has ever seen.
