Paperback / softback

Description

This book looks at WWII from a largely British perspective, based upon approximately 350 photographs from the archives of Mirrorpix.

It takes a look at the legacies of the war, including the establishment of the United Nations and the European Union.

The Second World War was the deadliest conflict in human history.

The Second World War broke out in Europe in 1939 and spread rapidly around the globe, involving most of the world's nations and all of the great powers.

The most widespread war in history, the Second World War involved more than 100 million people who served in military units.

Moreover, the major participants adopted a state of 'total war' whereby the nation's entire economic, industrial and scientific capabilities were dedicated to the war effort, removing the distinction between military and civilian resources.

It was the deadliest conflict in human history. Legacies of the war include the establishment of the United Nations and the European Union to encourage international co-operation and prevent future conflicts.

This book looks at the Second World War from a largely British perspective, based on approximately 350 photographs from the archives of "Mirrorpix".
