History: earliest times to present day

Paperback. What if I told you that there was an epic story about World War II that has not been told, involving the most unlikely group of heroes?

This book deals with these questions. Num Pages: 496 pages, Illustrations, map, ports. BIC Classification: 1D; 3JJH; ABK; HBJD; HBLW; HBWQ. Category: (G) General (US: Trade).
