World war two: under the shadow of the swastika

World War Two officially began with Germany?s invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939. In reality, it had been building up for years before that as Adolf Hitler and his Nazi party came to power in Germany. Hitler?s fanatical lust for power drew the entire world into conflict, killed millions of people in combat and in the Holocaust, and saw pain and suffering on a scale not seen before. Witness the major events of World War Two as we follow the fates of some officers, soldiers, journalists, and ordinary families caught up in the whirlwind of horror few could even comprehend or control in this graphic novel adaptation of the war, with specific focus on the action in Europe and Africa.
