"This is the first History of World War II to present a complete panorama of the greatest struggle in human history, with authentic text, official photographs, maps, records and documents in a single volume." - Historian's Foreword.

The index has an extensive section on the persecution of Jews, but no entry for Holocaust or Auschwitz. It does contain eye-witness accounts of the liberation of allied soldiers in German and Japanese prisoners-of-war camps and their conditions, and of the horrific treatment of Jews at the Buchenwald camp, "a hellhole of diabolic torture."
