Description

The Second World War Illustrated: The Final Year is a comprehensive visual history of the war's final year. With over 1,000 original photographs, this book offers a unique and accessible look at the key events and battlefields of 1944 and 1945. From Montgomery's Market Garden failure to the Warsaw Uprising, and from the Battle of Scheldt to the liberation of Alsace, each chapter is meticulously researched and digitally restored to bring the past to life. The book also explores the decline of the Nazi war machine and the Allies' push to victory, including Operation Varsity and the final days of Hitler. The Second World War Illustrated: The Final Year concludes with VE celebrations, before turning attention to the Burmese Campaign, the invasions of Iwo Jima and Okinawa, and the dropping of the atomic bomb.
