This innovative timeline chronicles WWII as it happened, detailing the key battles and events that mark turning points in the conflict. Divided into two sections, one on each major theatre, the book describes such famous events as the German invasion of France, the attack on Pearl Harbor, the battle of Stalingrad, the Normandy landings, the fall of Berlin, and the struggle for the Pacific islands. Running across each page is a timeline linking events together. The book comes with a tear-out timeline poster for the European and Asian theatres.
