Interest in the greatest military conflict of all time has never been stronger. Written by leading military historian Richard Holmes, The Second World War in Photographs presents his selection of images in year-by-year chapters, covering every theatre of operations. The images themselves are largely drawn from the immense collection of the Imperial War Museum in London, and include many rarely seen photographs. Dramatic, hard hitting and intensely moving, this is a unique visual testament to the millions of men and women who lost their lives in the war, and a reminder to today's generations of both the heroism and horror of global conflict. «
