Review
Louis L. Snyder's historical guide to World War II is a fascinating enterprise. The idea that, instead of a traditional narrative text-written by the author long ago-to try to present the events, personalities, facts and all other aspects of the war in an encyclopaedic work, is a very original one, and, because of the author's exceptional knowledge, a very successful one as well.... Since a short bibliographical survey is provided at the end of most of the entries, the guidebook of Professor Snyder can be regarded not only as a unique undertaking, but also as one of the best sources of information on the Second World War ever published.... we must be indebted to Professor Snyder for his remarkable achievement: providing us with this excellent guide to World War II, which may be used for generations to come." --Journal of Asian History "Every collector and reader of WWII books won't want to miss this combination lexicon/encyclopedia.History Book Club
