Summary: A chance to live (or re-live) World War II
Comment: World War II: Day by Day is a strikingly useful compilation of important events duing the second world war. It's unusual in two ways: First it focuses on ALL important events in those years, so you can find out, for example, when women started painting stocking seams on their legs as well as the date Rommel captured Tobruk. It's more than a list of important battles and important American political events--this book covers the various home fronts and the various battle fronts.
The second reason this book is invaluable is that it is organized by date, rather than subject. You can glance through the pages and have a decent thumbnail sketch of what happened in any month of the war. This makes the war years understandable without wading through a million books.
The layout is similar to news releases, so each page looks like a newspaper (although they are not authentic newspaper articles).
It must have taken years to compile this book. Serious students will find it useful as will those who just want a general snapshot of important events.

Summary: Deep and comprehensive
Comment: Very interesting book for every person interested in World War II. You live through weeks of war again. The book is like a documentary and it doesn't paint everything black and white letting you create your own opinion about things happened.
This book is different from other books when author tells only about events he thought were significant. It's more like reading through someone's collection of clippings from years of war.
A must have!

Summary: Fantastic resource for WW2 buffs
Comment: I am researching for and writing a World War II novel. In collecting materials I had DREAMS about a book like this! When I found it, it was like a book just MADE for what I wanted: a detailed daily account of the war. I have read literally dozens of books about WW2, but I have never found a resource as invaluable as this one. There are stories and information in it that I have never seen anywhere else.
