About this title

Synopsis

An atlas contains more than eight hundred detailed maps, charts, and commentaries that plot the exact course of the war on the land, sea, and in the air and includes a chronology of events that led to the war.

From Library Journal

Keegan and his distinguished team of consultants have produced a model atlas of a complex subject. The book's core is its operational maps. Technically well executed, they are complex but never confusing, and provide a comprehensive graphic survey of the war's major and minor fronts and theaters. This is complemented by sophisticated presentations on such less-obvious subjects for an atlas as resistance, intelligence, and special operations. The accompanying texts, spare but not simplistic, reflect state-of-the-art scholarship. A glossary, a chronology, and a section on military formations complete a work that, despite its size and cost, belongs in the hands of every serious student of World War II. For most collections. Military Book Club alternate.
