In a new and exciting approach to history, John Ellis presents a brilliant overview of a truly global conflict, focusing on a single day in the fifth year of the Second World War, when the Allied war machine was in top gear but the outcome was still far from certain. He describes a worldwide conflict form the viewpoint of those who took part on all fronts in both Allied and Axis forces - field marshal or private; president or prime minister; partisan or munitions worker - just as they saw it on 25th October 1944, without hindsight, only with clouded and partial foresight.
