Descubre cómo comenzó la Segunda Guerra Mundial, las repercusiones, y los acontecimientos que tuvieron lugar
La Segunda Guerra Mundial fue uno de los eventos más traumáticos en la historia de la humanidad. En todo el mundo, los conflictos existentes se fusionaron, enzarzando a las naciones en una vasta red de violencia. Se libró a través de tierra, mar y aire, afectando a todos los continentes habitados. Más de 55 millones de personas murieron, algunos de ellos combatientes, otros civiles atrapados en medio de la violencia o asesinados por sus propios gobiernos.
Fue la guerra que desencadenó el Holocausto y la bomba atómica sobre el mundo. Pero también fue una guerra que destacó por actos de coraje y sacrificio en todos los bandos.
Algunos de los temas tratados en este libro incluyen:
- La marea creciente
- Desde Polonia hasta la caída de Francia

¿Fue Hitler, tal y como preguntó Ian Kershaw, una consecuencia natural de la historia alemana o una aberración? No es que Hitler hubiera estado escondido, esperando para atacar. El Führer realmente había estado siguiendo una política exterior agresiva y salvaje durante casi diez años, y fue nombrado Hombre del Año por la revista Time en 1938.

La cultura y los acontecimientos que tuvieron lugar en Grecia fueron tan influyentes que tienen un efecto significativo en la población actual de todo el mundo. Los griegos antiguos crearon la democracia, un sistema político usado frecuentemente y considerado por muchos como la mejor forma de gobierno. Las grandes mentes de Grecia también hicieron increíbles y vitales descubrimientos, como el molino de agua, la geometría básica, y el uso de la medicina para curar enfermedades. Los filósofos de la antigua Grecia establecieron los cimientos de un nuevo campo de pensamiento y estudios.

La enorme cantidad de combatientes que periódicamente zarpaban hacia el Cercano Oriente para luchar contra los musulmanes son una prueba de la popularidad generalizada del aventurerismo en el extranjero en ese momento. La idea de una cruzada, en la que grandes ejércitos procedentes de varias regiones de Europa se reunían con el fin de luchar contra los musulmanes turcos y árabes, quedó tan arraigada que se amplió para incluir a las cruzadas contra las sectas cristianas europeas heréticas.

Christmas is the single biggest annual event on the planet, a time for merry-making, over-indulgence, peace, goodwill, and the occasional family row. 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. Portrayed frequently in fine art and popular culture alike, the gladiator is both a real part of history and a legend of a romanticized past. 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?

In 1992, the deadliest year in Chicago’s history, seven-year-old Dantrell Davis was shot and killed in front of his elementary school inside the public housing complex Cabrini-Green. What happened to Dantrell led to a truce among Chicago’s gangs, but it also ignited a national panic about poverty and violence in America’s cities. Dantrell’s name would soon be used to demolish all of Chicago’s high-rise public housing, displacing tens of thousands of low-income families.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Informative as well as entertaining
I am a a big WWII buff and thoroughly enjoyed this. In my view it is informative with many stories about things which I had never before heard and was also entertaining at the same time. Anyone who wants to learn more than that history classes teach in school should get this.

Details about some battles.
This book helped me understand about the war from beginning to end. There are quotes from men who actually fought in various battles. This really brings home the terrible price of war. The book gives details about various battles and the great casualties we took. I found the book to be very informative, a great read. It is disturbing at times to realize the price we paid in American lives. It certainly convinces one that war should be avoided unless absolutely necessary.

Great item for those who love history.
Very interesting. I must not have listened to history years ago in school because beyond it being interesting (and I don't necessarily have a keen interest in history - hence my not listening in school years ago), I am learning a lot.

The prose is well written allowed easy reading.
This history of World War II, which is an edited, expanded version of the original Henry Steele Commanger work, is outstanding in detail. It holds your attention, yet is filled with statistics and facts, many of which are no longer remembered. I recommend this work most highly to anyone interested in the world at war, 1939-1946.

Finely Detailed Summary of WW II
This book was endorsed by documentation Ken Burns as his "walk around daily source" for his film on World War II. No more need be said, except that I find it highly readable and laced with quotations from individuals who were on the scene during the war.
