“An excellent special-focus supplement to WWII studies.” —Booklist
History is more than a bunch of dusty dates. In World War Two: Under the Shadow of the Swastika, author and illustrator duo Lewis Helfand and Lalit Kumar Sharma movingly resurrect the people who lived through it. Covering the full scope of World War II from Hitler’s rise to power to the Allies’ victory in 1945, this fast-paced and informative graphic novel shows the effects of Nazi tyranny on the soldiers, the refugees, and the victims of the most terrible conflict the world has ever known.
Packing impressive historical detail into stunning, full-color illustrations and a gripping narrative that leans on emotion rather than gore, this book is an essential resource for history teachers and students alike. In a world that is forgetting the lessons history has to teach, this book is a reminder of the horrors that come from intolerance.
