We also witness the launch of SS James Oglethorpe; the fate of U-604, a German submarine; the building of the first nuclear reactor; and the making of Casablanca.'Extraordinary . an original panorama of humankind's most destructive war' New York Times'Superb . a stimulating read' New StatesmanNot since Englund's own The Beauty and the Sorrow has a book given us one of the most dramatic periods of human history in all its immensity and emotional range. …
