N2  - A book about the history of the Second World War rather than the war itself. Considers how the war was and continues widely to be perceived as the most important event of the 20th century, how American policy developed in favour of winning the war against Germany before dealing with Japan, the division of Europe and how the war led in turn to the Cold War
