Description
“Gripping. . . . splendid history. A brilliantly clear and accessible account of the war in all its theaters. Roberts’s prose is unerringly precise and strikingly vivid. It is hard to imagine a better-told military history of World War II.” –New York Times Book Review Andrew Roberts's acclaimed new military history has been hailed as the finest single-volume account of this epic conflict. From the western front to North Africa, from the Baltic to the Far East, he tells the story of the war—the grand strategy and the individual experience, the brutality and the heroism—as never before. Meticulously researched and masterfully written, The Storm of War illuminates the war's principal actors, revealing how their decisions shaped the course of the global conflict. Along the way, Roberts presents tales of the many lesser-known individuals whose experiences form a panoply of the courage and self-sacrifice, as well as the depravity and cruelty, of the Second World War. This comprehensive single-volume history delves into every theater of the war, revealing:- Grand Strategy: An examination of the principal actors whose decisions determined the fate of nations.- Total Global Conflict: In-depth coverage of every front, from the shores of Western Europe and the sands of North Africa to the Baltic and the fierce fighting in the Far East.- The Human Experience: Moving tales of heroism, self-sacrifice, and suffering from the lesser-known individuals who fought, endured, and perished.- Definitive Single-Volume History: A masterful and meticulously researched account that brings the entire epic of World War II into sharp focus in one book.
