The Palgrave Concise Historical Atlas of World War II de M. Folly

The Palgrave Concise Historical Atlas of World War II: Palgrave Concise Historical Atlases

Autor M. Folly
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 2004
The Palgrave Concise Historical Atlas of the Second World War explores in graphical form, the causes, course, and consequences of this global war. Clear two-colour maps and diagrams are accompanied by a facing page of explanatory text addressing not just battles and campaigns, but also clarifying the key social, economic and political aspects of the war. These tend to get less coverage in conventional military history atlases, but are vital for understanding the totality of the war experience and its enduring legacy. Students and general readers will find it a useful and accessible introduction to the war in all its facets, from its origins to its legacy.
