About this audiobook

Global War Expands follows the dramatic widening of the Second World War from 1940 to 1941, as regional conflicts became a truly global struggle. From Mussolini's campaigns in the Mediterranean and the opening battles in North Africa, to the German invasion of the Balkans and the arrival of Rommel's Afrika Korps, the book shows how Axis ambition stretched across continents. It also explores the intensifying Battle of the Atlantic, the importance of Lend-Lease, and America's gradual movement away from neutrality. The final chapters turn to the enormous shock of Operation Barbarossa, the suffering of Leningrad, the defense of Moscow, and Japan's path toward war, ending with Pearl Harbor and the entry of the United States into the conflict.
