The Ordeal of Total War: 1939-1945 - Softcover
The Second World War's destructive impact on the continent of Europe probably exceeds that of any previous disaster in the modern era. This volume is concerned with a brief six-year period. Wright, having mastered a vast amount of diffuse literature on WWII, has put his own stimulating interpretations on a difficult and complicated subject. The book goes far beyond the usual military chronicle. It is a splendid synthesis of a tragic phase of recent European history.

Review:
". . . a distinguished achievement which conveys a convincing picture of what total war means, or rather what it meant before the H-bomb added a new dimension." --New York Review of Books
