From Alamein to Barbarossa, the war on China to Stalingrad, Al Murray and James Holland's We Have Ways of Making You Talk: New Histories of World War Two will capture readers with the most up to date and pioneering academic research on a host of WWII-related topics.
The book will trace the darkest hours of the miracle that was Dunkirk, follow arctic convoys in the North Cape, consider the destruction of Hamburg, and unpick the only thing that ever really frightened Churchill. Like their hugely successful podcast, We Have Ways of Making You Talk, it will delve into the forgotten, hidden and little explained aspects of the war. New Histories of World War Two is the first book to tie-in with the podcast and will follow a number of the podcast's most successful series.
At once entertaining and illuminating, this is the perfect book for fans of World War II history.
