註釋
The book provides a comprehensive survey of the war on every front, on land, on sea and in the air, set out as a compelling chronological narrative in which both the politicians and the commanders, and the soldiers and civilians, are given equal weight. As in his history of the First World War, he describes many acts of heroism, many acts of desperation, great suffering, and great courage. This is the first book in which the fate of the Jews is described as an integral part of the historical narrative, as indeed it was. The book moves from all the battlefronts, including those in both Europe, Asia and the Pacific, to the life of those behind the lines and under occupation. The fate of relatively small groups, such as the gypsies, is not overlooked.
