WW2: A Layman's Guide

di Scott Addington (Autore)

Scott Addington, 2022

An antidote to all those history books that are too long, too technical, over complicated and difficult to follow. WW2: A Layman's Guide is a straightforward, short history of the Second World War that is more like a chat over a cup of tea than a heavy historical text. Written with pace and personality not found in other history books, it is a truly brilliant introduction to World War Two. Andy Thorne - online review Scott has produced another easy to read guide that gives you enough information to cover the major topics. The clever bit is the informal style that makes these books appealing to everyone with a curiosity in the subject but who does not have the time or stamina for an academic epic. Stuart Hall - online review Want to know about the Second World War but don't want to wade through thousands of pages? Want to know the facts and discover the why/who/what/when of WW2 without being bored rigid? You have come to the right place! This 'Layman's Guide' has been written to educate, engage and entertain readers - especially those who perhaps have not read too much about WW2 before. Short, sharp chapters are written with a pace and style not normally found in history books (which, let's be honest, can be pretty tough to read sometimes!) More akin to a nice easy chat over a cup of tea rather than a heavy historical text, the story flows naturally, albeit without mountains of minutiae. This Layman's Guide provides enough detail to gain a good grounding of knowledge and understanding , without the reader becoming overwhelmed in detail and complexity.
