The World War II Collection

An engrossing set of histories examining five fascinating facets of the Second World War. From insights into the consuming evil of Hitler’s SS and Hitler’s final 24 hours; to an analysis of the first 21 Nazi defendants to stand trial at Nuremberg; a gripping account and analysis of the D-Day landings; and the greatest battles of the conflict across its many theatres. Expert but accessibly written texts to deepen your knowledge of the War, the nature of the combatants and the bravery and sacrifice that led to Allied victory. The set comprises: ‘The D-Day Landings: The Allis' Invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe’, by Nigel Cawthorne: ‘The Nuremberg Trials: The Nazis Brought to Justice’, by Alexander Macdonald; ‘The Story of the SS: Hitler's Infamous Legions of Death’, by Al Cimino; ‘Great Battles of World War II: How The Allies Defeated The Axis Powers’, by Michael Dudley; and ‘Hitler's Last Day: The Final Hours of the Führer’, by Richard Dargie.
