The World at War

The World at War captures one of the most decisive and dramatic years of the Second World War, when the Axis powers reached their greatest expansion, and the Allies began to turn the tide. From Japan's lightning advance across the Pacific to the fall of Singapore, the agony of Bataan, and the daring Doolittle Raid, this volume follows the shock, sacrifice, and strategic transformation of a world in crisis. Moreover, it explores the carrier battles of Coral Sea and Midway, the brutal opening of the Guadalcanal campaign, the long war in China, and the terrifying systematization of the Holocaust. In North Africa, it traces the struggle at El Alamein and the Allied landings of Operation Torch, while the Eastern Front reaches its devastating climax as Stalingrad begins. This fourht book presents 1942 as the year when Axis momentum began to break and the global war entered its turning phase.
