Story
When Adolf Hitler stormed to power in Germany during the 1930s, he experienced little opposition for his plans to re-build his adopted homeland after the restraints put upon the country and the reparations they were forced to pay to the victorious Allies in the aftermath of the First World War. Nevertheless, it may come as a surprise to discover that as early as 1938, even before the outbreak of World War II, conspiratorial groups had developed within the German army, with the objective of actually preventing Hitler launching a global conflict.

Story
Mention the spirit of Dunkirk today and people will associate the phrase with that “never say die” mentality so closely associated with the British as a nation. However, few would be able to tell you more than the fact that Dunkirk had something to do with World War II, and that it’s very probably a place in France. This is of course correct on both counts, although metaphorically speaking, just the tip of the iceberg.

On December 7th 1941 as World War II raged, the focus of attention was snatched from the battlefields of Europe and diverted to the smoke and flames rising from the American Naval Base in Hawaii, Pearl Harbor. The Empire of the Rising Sun had finally struck, piercing the heart of the US navy in a bid to ensure that their plans for an Asian Empire, every bit as ambitious as Adolf Hitler’s Thousand Year Reich, were not threatened.

Publisher's Summary
Do you want to learn more about World War II, but don’t have time to read huge, long books? Then let The History Journals take you on an hourly history tour of the different facets of the war. In this edition, America enters WW2.
There were those who described World War I as the war to end all wars and for the American servicemen involved in the conflict, it was a hope they whole-heartedly shared. Yet early one Sunday morning, December 7th 1941 to be precise, the young men of America were again called upon to fight in a World War, the second of the 20th Century. This was the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Great Britain and much of continental Europe had been at war with Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Germany since 1939, and President Roosevelt had been in constant communication with Britain’s Prime Minister Winston Churchill, but when the Japanese struck at Pearl Harbor that fateful day, America was suddenly at the heart of the conflict, shoulder to shoulder with the Allies in the fight against Hitler and the Axis powers.
Follow the fascinating story of America’s journey into World War II and discover the remarkable, selfless, courage and bravery of Americans both at home and abroad that literally turned the tide of the war against Adolf Hitler. Find out how Hollywood played it’s part in the war effort, see how the American women went to war, manning the production lines in factories, building ships, aircraft, tanks and jeeps, and trace the routes of the American troops who gave their all on the beaches of Normandy, the battle fields of Europe, the open skies and on the high seas of the Atlantic and Pacific, making the world a safer, better place for future generations.
