World War II: 1944 (One Hour WW II History Books Book 6)

In this one-hour history book, discover why 1944 was the year of no return. A year of triumph for the Allies and of despair for the Axis forces, as we uncover the main events of that year during World War II, the most lethal war of all times.

As rapid as the Axis advance had been, it was rolled back just as rapidly in 1944.
The Nazis were losing everything they had gained in Eastern Europe, and after the Allies landed in Normandy, France, pulling off the impossible, with the largest invasion force in history, they were on the verge of losing everything in Western Europe as well. The loss of Italy, meanwhile, had become almost a foregone conclusion when Rome fell in the spring of 1944, and by late summer the fighting had reached all the way up the peninsula to Pisa.

The Japanese situation was a little bit more complicated, with both gains and losses, but the overall trajectory was the same. The Axis as a whole was on a backward blitz that put the fascists on the receiving end of the same kind of overwhelming offensives that they had unleashed upon an unsuspecting world just a few years before.

The Axis powers that had previously shaken the world with their fascist aggression were now thoroughly shaken themselves. By 1944 their reign of terror was almost over, but they would still fight on, clinging to the fantastic hope that they would somehow pull victory from the jaws of defeat. Thankfully, the fevered dreams of these madmen and megalomaniacs would not prevail.

In this short read one hour book, you will know everything you need to know about what happened in 1944 during World War II.
