World History

In NEVER SURRENDER Robert Kershaw captures the authentic voices of the ordinary heroes of the Second World War. Read first-hand accounts of the breathless reaction to Chamberlain's declaration of war in 1939. Discover what it was really like to fight in the limitless western desert of North Africa or through the horrific 24 hours of D-Day? How did an entire generation cope in a world with no secure future? What was it like living through the Blitz? Or flying in the Battle of Britain? How did prisoners of war survive the poor conditions, tedium, and physical and psychological trauma of the camps? NEVER SURRENDER features interviews with veterans and civilians from Britain, the Commonwealth and Germany as well as diaries, letters, and first hand accounts to create a remarkable picture of the men and women who lived through the Second World War.
