There have been numerous books written about the Second World War, and many of them are excellent. What makes this one different, however, is the way it blows apart some of the myths we have come to accept as facts, such as Chamberlain’s appeasement of Hitler and Britain’s Blitz psychology. It’s a big tome to read, but not a heavy one. It is so incredibly detailed that the research behind it fairly boggles the mind… A great read for history buffs or those who have watched too many WWII films and need a reality check.
Full review to follow if I ever make it to the end…
