The story is often told as a series of great campaigns by famous generals, dramatic turning points, and cataclysmic combat. But what about the millions of ordinary people-the citizens and soldiers whose names none of us know but whose impact rippled through every aspect of the war? From the icy front lines of Soviet Russia to the bombing campaigns against Britain to the American submarines lurking beneath the choppy waters of the Pacific, step into the shoes of remarkable everyday men and women in World War II: Up Close and Personal. In 24 engrossing lessons, Dr. Keith Huxen, a historian and project director at The Henry M. Jackson Foundation, takes you into the story of ordinary people doing extraordinary things-bringing history to life through the flesh and blood of battles, the diplomatic skirmishes, or beleaguered civilians eking out their next meal. From the Nazi's propaganda machine to recruit German youth and the shocking Japanese invasion of China, to the bloody Battle of the Bulge and the dropping of the atomic bombs, Keith traces the course of the war to give you a sense of its global scope, while also zooming in through the eyes of soldiers, sailors, pilots, war correspondents, and citizens struggling to survive a war-torn world. With its focus on the "felt life" of the war, this course is an absolute must-have for anyone interested in the story of our modern world.
