内容简介 第二次世界大战(1939年-1945年)是迄今为止,人类社会所进行的规模最大,伤亡最惨重,造成破坏最大的全球性战争。
战争最高峰时期,全球有61个国家和地区参战,有17亿以上的人口被卷入战争。交战双方是以美国、苏联、中国、英国、法国等国组成的反法西斯同盟与以德国,日本,意大利等国组成的法西斯国家轴心国集团。战火遍及亚洲、欧洲、美洲、非洲及大洋洲五大洲;交战双方同时也在太平洋、大西洋、印度洋及北冰洋四大洋展开战斗。
尽管在1939年9月前,中国的抗日战争,埃塞俄比亚的抗意战争等反法西斯的抵抗已经开始,但一般认为战争从1939年9月1日德国入侵波兰开始,到1945年9月2日日本向盟国投降而告结束。
Book DescriptionIn a thorough yet fresh look at the most important global event of the 20th century, best-selling journalist Richard B Stolley takes you on a journey from the escalating tensions of pre-World War II Europe to the shock of the Pearl Harbour attack, to the creation of the Atomic Bomb. With access to the extensive LIFE photo archives as well as recently released government photos from countries such as Germany and Russia, this volume promises a picture history of unparalleled depth and power. This dense and fast-paced history in pictures will flow chronologically, beginning with the prelude to the war, into chapters covering each year from 1940 to 1945 and a closing chapter on the war's aftermath. Every major event and military action throughout the international arena is documented in vivid images - from Dunkirk to Hiroshima. Classic images, of course, as only LIFE can provide them, but also unknown, startling pictures excavated from the LIFE archives and others around the world: chilling colour photographs of Hitler taken by his personal photographer, or the moments just before and after that unforgettable kiss captured by Eisenstadt in Times Square.

Four Blunders That Doomed the World
by Robert Edwin Herzstein
ON NOVEMBER. 11, 1918, the bloodiest war in human history ended. But in the afermath of that
Great War, the seeds of a more horrific struggle were sown. In more than four years (1914-1918)
of bloodshed, 10million men had died in the trenches and killing fields of Europc. Anothcr 20
million were woundcd.Now, millions of men and women hoped that a new world order would prevent the
outbrcak of another, more terrible coniict.
A divcrse cast of characters would propose different remedics.
From war-ravagcd Russia, V. I. Lenin calldd for a European revolution, led by Communists in the
name of workers and peasants of the world. End imperialist wars, he declared, and Socialism would
inaugurate an era of human happincss.
From the Unitcd States came President Woodrow Wilson. For the first time, his country had
determined the outcome of a general European war.
Before cheering crowds, he ofered the world "Four-teen Points"toward a just peace and a League of
Nations undrr American leadership. He had called the recent conflict the war to end all wars; now,
he insisted,"the world must be made safe for democracy."
Boh Wilson and Lenin would die in 1924, their dreams unfulillcd.
