World War II: The People's Story

Based on original eyewitness accounts, WWII: The People's Story tells the firsthand stories of those who fought or lived through the war to end all wars. These courageous men women, children, soldiers, sailors, pilots and workers tell in their own words who they joined, what they felt and what they did to survive.

Relive life during wartime - from daring attacks in the air and risky missions behind enemy lines to raising a family between bobmin raids and keeping the home fires burning. Share the anguish, tragedy and triumph as you listen to their voices on the accompanying CD.

Lavishly illustrated with hundreds of photographs, many never seen before WWII: The People's Story is a celebration of ordinary people caught in extraordinary times. 

A tribute to everyday people who witnessed the Second World War firsthand is a collection of personal accounts by soldiers and civilians complemented by 450 contemporary and rarely seen photographs and a seventy-minute audio CD.
