An accessible and wide-ranging overview of the moments and milestones of the Second World War, Timelines of World War II offers a fresh angle on the subject, bringing the conflict to life through contemporary photos, documents, maps, and artefacts of importance.

From the rise of fascism in Italy and Germany in the 1920s to the attack on Pearl Harbor and the bombing of Hiroshima, through to the founding of the State of Israel in 1948, entries explore the key events and turning points in all of the main theatres of war, and provide essential insights into the experiences of leaders, soldiers, and civilians involved.

Stunning feature spreads showcase artworks, photographs, and other artefacts, while profile boxes bring to life the people, new technology, and milestone events that altered the course of history.
