The Storm of War - Andrew Roberts

"Roberts's populist approach makes  for a rollicking good read and never comes at the expense of accuracy.  His mastery of the huge variety of subjects is truly impressive and his  ability to marshal these subjects into a single compelling narrative  stunning." —The Daily Telegraph Hailed by The Economist as “Britain’s finest military historian” for bestsellers such as Masters and Commanders and Waterloo,  Andrew Roberts offers a magisterial new history of World War II and the  Axis strategy that led the Germans and Japanese to their eventual defeat.  Perfect for reader shopping to gain new insight into WWII’s pivotal  battles and campaigns, from Dunkirk to D-Day, The Storm of War is  a powerful, penetrating, and compulsively readable examination of the  causes, currents, and consequences of the Second World War.
