Summary

"Why did the world find itself immersed in another global conflict only two decades after World War I? World War II: From the Rise of the Nazi Party to the Dropping of the Atomic Bomb introduces kids ages 12 to 15 to the political, military, and cultural forces that shook the globe from 1939 to 1945 and beyond. This book offers a clear examination of the events leading up to, during, and after WWII and the repercussions of these events on populations around the world, including the Holocaust, the systemic murder of 11 million people."--Back cover
