The audiobook tells about the greatest battles of World War II that flared up in North Africa and the Arctic regions, on Pacific islands and on the Central Russian Plain, in the mountains of the Balkan Peninsula and in the waters of the Atlantic. It shows both the successes and failures of the anti-Hitler coalition as well as of the Axis powers. Who benefited from Japan’s “treacherous attack” on Pearl Harbor? Could Leningrad have avoided being encircled? Why did the Anglo-American allies take so long to open a second front in Europe, and what happened in the first days of the Normandy landings?
This audiobook answers these and other questions.
