Liddell Hart's History of the Second World War

Viac o knihe

History of the Second World War, B.H. Liddell Hart's last work as well as his magnum opus, embodies the fruits of 20 years of research & a lifetime of thinking on war. It abounds with controversial judgments, including provocative assertions about the true causes behind France's defeat in 1940, Hitler's failed invasion of Russia & Japan's stunning victory at Pearl Harbor; the effectiveness of the Allies' strategic bombing of Germany; the questionable necessity of detonating atom bombs over Hiroshima & Nagasaki; & much more. This monumental history is both a crowning achievement & a final summation by one of the greatest military thinkers of the 20th century.
