This book presents in detail the major battles of World War II, from the evacuation of Dunkirk to the landing in Okinawa. It offers a comprehensive overview of the conflicts on land, sea, and air, as the reader can 'approach' them from different perspectives.
For example, one can see how a pilot viewed a dogfight over an English airbase or how a German tank commander perceived the advance on Moscow amidst the biting cold and snow. Additionally, one can experience the dramatic attack of American vertical dive bombers on Japanese aircraft carriers at Midway, the defeat of the Germans at the Battle of Stalingrad, as well as the landing at Omaha Beach in Normandy.
The three-dimensional graphics detail the movements of troops, the arrangement of weapons, the state of the terrain, and even the weather conditions prevailing during the battle. These graphics are accompanied by hundreds of colored sketches, maps, and tables that analyze tactics and strategies, battle formations, and weaponry.
