Share This
Description
This lecture takes every branch of warfare from Code-breaking to Logistics to the Atom Bomb to Grand Strategy and every battlefield from Midway to Stalingrad to Normandy. This is not, of course, the story of the War - in only 4,788 words - but it is a densely packed, thorough and far-reaching analysis of what went wrong for the Axis powers and what went right for the Grand Alliance. Every page contains compelling insights and striking detail. The author has studied the War for sixty years, and taught it for forty. This gripping lecture is the culmination of a life-time of research and thought.
George Harris writes these lectures with an ambitious exam candidate in mind, who wants something more than the basic text books but lacks the time to read full-length monographs. This makes them perfect revision. They are also ideal for adults who gave up History at school but who now want to refresh their knowledge.
Every day we are bombarded with films, books and TV programmes about parts of the War. This lecture will give you the broad overview needed to join those parts together.
