About this listen
La vibrante historia, narrada con ritmo de "thriller", del conflicto armado más sangriento y devastador de la historia de la humanidad. Jesús Hernández nos recuerda que la Segunda Guerra Mundial, como un castigo penitenciario, duró seis años y un día, no hay otro modo de entender el episodio más terrible de la historia de la humanidad. Un conflicto que dejó una cantidad de muertos aún sin determinar pero que oscila entre los cincuenta y los setenta millones, una guerra que se extendió desde las costas del Pacífico hasta el norte de África.
Narrado con la velocidad de las mejores batallas, Breve Historia de la Segunda Guerra Mundial revive el horror y los héroes de uno de los episodios más fascinantes de la historia. El libro sigue un criterio que mezcla lo geográfico y lo cronológico con el que consigue una fiel panorámica de la guerra y trasladarnos a la vorágine de los avances nazis y las respuestas de los aliados. Apuesta Jesús Hernández por recrear de un modo vívido los enfrentamientos sin interrumpir la narración con una estática batería de datos. Iwo Jima, Staligrado, Normandía, Kursk, las batallas en el Pacífico, Rommel contra Montgomery, la Guerra Relámpago, la Segunda Guerra Mundial es el hecho más trascendental del S. XX y el conflicto más devastador de la historia. Un audio libro conciso y breve que da una idea completa de este complejo episodio histórico.
Please Note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Story
Anhelo los días previos a la Última Desolación. Los días en que los Heraldos nos abandonaron y los Caballeros Radiantes se giraron en nuestra contra. Un tiempo en que aún había magia en el mundo y honor en el corazón de los hombres. El mundo fue nuestro, pero lo perdimos. Probablemente no hay nada más estimulante para las almas de los hombres que la victoria. ¿O tal vez fue la victoria una ilusión durante todo ese tiempo? ¿Comprendieron nuestros enemigos que cuanto más duramente luchaban, más resistíamos nosotros? Quizá vieron que el fuego y el martillo tan solo producían mejores espadas.

It’s as comfortable and familiar as a pair of old shoes and yet still glittery and exciting. But what do you really know about it? It’s stuffed full of traditions and rituals that most of us have been observing all our lives without having the slightest idea of where they come from.

The Roman gladiator has long been a figure of fascination.

We know that these men entertained Roman audiences by fighting in dangerous and often deadly games. But who were the gladiators? What were their lives like? And why do they continue to have such a strong hold on our imagination, centuries after the fall of the Roman Empire?

La mejor crónica de la segunda guerra mundial
Impresionante el trabajo histórico de Jesús Hernández sobre la segunda guerra mundial. Es increíble que en tan pocas páginas (horas audiolibro) haya podido sintetizar tanta información de una manera tan amena que parece una novela.
Sin lugar a dudas para mi es la mejor crónica (en español) de este impactante evento histórico, aunado a otras de sus obras (también disponibles en Audible) que la complementan, tales como:
Todo lo que debe saber sobre la segunda guerra mundial,
Operaciones secretas de la segunda guerra mundial
Enigmas y misterios de la segunda guerra mundial
Historias asombrosas de la segunda guerra mundial
Breve historia de Hitler
Considerando, todas estas obras en conjunto, tenemos una crónica que reúne aspectos multifacéticos difícilmente de encontrar en otra obra histórica.

Me encantó el autor, logra condensar todo sobre la segunda guerra mundial y lo hace con una maestría impecable y además muy entretenida. Tanto que se quedan en tu memoria todos los eventos, nombres y fechas de importantes de éste suceso histórico de la humanidad. Lo recomiendo para todos los jóvenes en edad de preparatoria. Es una buena opción para darles a conocer esto de una forma entretenida, breve y muy completa.
