World War II in Color: From the Eastern Front to the Pacific - The War in 300 Color Photographs

Hardback. Condición: Very Good. World War II was both a global struggle for supremacy between military powers and a clash of ideologies that instilled an unprecedented popular sense of urgency in the men and women who fought on both sides. Matched with state-of-the-art weaponry, such idealism gave rise to epic campaigns of mechanized movement, horrific slaughter on the battlefield, and mass-murder on an industrial scale. Innumerable photos survive - but only a small fraction of these in color. World War II in Color features 300 remarkable, full-color photos to provide a truly unique visual testimony of these tumultuous war years. * Brings to the fore the photographers who advanced the art, including official Nazi cameraman Hugo Jaeger and American photographic mastermind Edward Steichen. * Includes vivid images of service personnel on campaign and active support on the home front, providing a comprehensive visual survey of the period. * No fewer than 300 archival photos presented in full color, many of them never seen in print before. * Each color photo is accompanied by incisive commentary that provides insights into the context of each image, and into the wider conflict.
