About this title: With the same erudition, discernment, and crisp prose that made his A History of Warfare an international bestseller, Keegan surveys the literature of World War II, identifying the works he finds most important and illuminating while examining the sometimes savage controversies raised by two generations of the war's historians.

"An interesting survey of a few controversial issues surrounding WWII scholarship, plus a list of recommendations for further reading. Keegan's insight is always invaluable, and that is why this book is far too short. I do wish that he had made it at least ten times longer anc covered many more topics and controversied with more extensive commentary. In other words, a quick read that I wish weren't so quick."
