Description
New York: Harper & Row, Publishers, (1976). First Edition. Octavo, red boards (hardcover), map illus. endpapers, 16 pages of illustrations, 16 maps, 525 pp. Fine in a Very Good dust jacket with edgewear. From dust jacket: This is the first half -- through Pearl Harbor -- of the author’s history of World War II. It opens with a chapter outlining the causes, leaders and personalities, and steps toward war. The following chapters continue, in the highly readable style of the author’s brief outline history of World War I, with sections describing all major theaters and actions in the years 1939, 1940, and 1941. All the great battles on land, on sea, and in the air are covered in detail. The section on Pearl Harbor, “the end of the beginning,” recreates the flavor of sentiment in the United States at the time -- the confusion, fear, and anger. This history, a dramatic narrative enlivened by quotations from eyewitnesses, by one of the world’s outstanding military experts, will stand as the atuhoritative account of the crisis of World War II.
