BOOKS ABOUT THE SECOND WORLD WAR available from booksmusicfilmstv.com - in association with Amazon.co.uk

World War Two was probably the first war in history where, even though battles raged from Africa and Europe to the Pacific, the names of places of civilian slaughter are better remembered - Auschwitz, Belsen, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Warsaw, Dresden, and even London, Berlin, and Tokyo.

History is important in helping us learn from our mistakes, and books can be as vivid as film, on occasions, in portraying the bestiality of man's inhumanity to man. The books on this page cover all aspects of the worst war in human history, including the uplifting stories of survival against terrible odds.
