Description: Filled with up-to-date scholarship yet supremely manageable and accessible, The Concise Encyclopedia of World War II offers the opportunity to explore a conflict that remains a source of fascination for scholars, students, and general readers alike.

From the battlefields to the corridors of power, from the barracks to the homefront, The Concise Encyclopedia of World War II provides a complete portrait of the war. Entries not only address major battles and campaigns, but political, economic, and cultural issues as well, plus brief portraits of the conflict's commanding personalities. Its global perspective notably corrects the usual Western focus of WWII studies, incorporating a wealth of information on often underreported topics such as the Eastern Front and the Sino-Japanese War.

 Title Features:
Hundreds of concise entries on all facets of World War II, ranging well beyond the typical focus on the West and on battle to battle recaps

100 photos, illustrations, and maps offering important information about World War II
