A very comprehensive and nice overview of WWII. This book got me hooked to Anthony Beevor and all his other books.

This may as well be called 'Antony Beevor's big book of war.' It covers every battle, every action, every political and military victory and defeat. Yet despite spanning the entire conflict, and including the brutal battles of Asia and the eastern front, it still manages to provide so many personal stories of those caught up in the most brutal war mankind has ever fought. A must read.
Lazy, rainy coffee date with myself. #currentlyreading #historygeek
