Gilbert charts week by week, month by month, the development and horror of a war in which more than 46 million people perished. In this history of a global war, the author weaves together all aspects - political, diplomatic, military and civilian. Heroes from all nations - soldiers, sailors and airmen, statesmen and resistance fighters are remembered and their stories put in the context of the wider struggle.
