World War Two: 1942

The latest installment in this popular series from Key Publishing, World War Two, 1942 offers readers a compelling understanding of the timeline of the global conflict. The pivotal year arrived with the knell of disaster and departed with Allied victory in sight. At its end, much fighting and dying lay ahead, but the outcome of World War Two was more a question of time than of potential catastrophic defeat. Despite the terrible losses suffered at the hands of Axis forces early in the year - the fall of Singapore and the Philippines to the Japanese, the real possibility of Nazi tanks rolling across Egypt and seizing the Suez Canal, and the ever-present threat to the Soviet capital of Moscow - 1942 ended after the turning points at Midway and El Alamein were won, and the Red Army had encircled the Germans at Stalingrad. On the cusp of 1943, the Allies had seized the initiative, though the long road to victory was fraught with peril. World War Two 1942 makes for riveting reading.
