"This book is a tome (about a 1000 pages), but it covers almost every aspect of World War II. It was very thorough in explaining the events, politics, economics, personalities, and everyday life during this time period. The one thing this book does not do so well is go into detail about the battles. They are described in a very global or general fashion. So if you want to read about battles, you may want to try another source, but if you want to know EVERYTHING else, I found this book very entertaining read."
"This is can probably be considered the seminal book on the history of the second world war. I was turned on to this book by one of the history professors at Dartmouth. Besides the depth of this book it is unique in that it explains and examines all the players involved in the war and how their actions were shaped by the other players. I have read hundreds of books on WWII and this is by far the best."
"This is the definitive one volume work putting forth the global perspective and impact of WWII. It took me a very long time to read but it was worth it. You could read every last bit of it, or use it as a reference (I chose the former). This book is well-written and gives tremendous detail. Its only failing, in my view, is that it was hard to stick with it enthusiastically the whole time because of its length."
