In this book, renowned historian Martin Gilbert, drawing on thousands of documents and testimonies, creates a comprehensive chronicle of the most devastating war in human history. From the start of the war, European conflicts rapidly escalated into a global catastrophe: the invasion of Poland, the fall of Paris, the attack on Pearl Harbor, and the Battle of Moscow. The author goes beyond describing the movements of armies on a map, showing how Hitler's "blitzkrieg" ground down the lives of millions of people—from soldiers in the trenches to civilians under the bombing of London and Leningrad. What diplomatic miscalculations by European leaders made global conflict inevitable? What price did Great Britain have to pay to stand alone against the full might of the Luftwaffe? Why did Operation Barbarossa fail where the German command expected an easy victory? This is the story of how the world, step by step, plunged into the chaos of total confrontation.
