World War II: A Photographic History

Rating:
Summary: More than a coffee table book.
Review: I bought this book looking only for a good WWII pictorial, but received much more. While the photographs were excellent in quality and quantity (some quite graphic), the book also contained an interesting narrative overview of the war. This included Hitler's rise to power, and life in Nazi occupied Europe, which were of particular interest to me. It is a must for any WWII buff.

Summary: A very informative book; worth the price!
Review: I found this book to be true to its own words,"WW II: A Photographic History covers every major theatre of battle and the extraordainary people involved. With over 900 photographs, many published here for the first time, this unique book offers a comprehensive view of the entire conflict."

I found the pages to be well edited. The black and white photographs made it very realistic.

It gives me a newfound respect for the military photographers! An invaluable contribution to the pages of history.

Summary: recommended
Review: this book was very interesting. it has great pictures that i haven't seen before, and i've read a lot of books on world war II. the text fits nicely with the photos, although it doesn't go into great depth about the subject. the book is split into different sections, mostly chronological.
