The Second World War: An Illustrated History by James Holland and illustrated by Keith Burns book cover

Classic Military Vehicle and Britain at War magazines have teamed up with Penguin Books to give five lucky readers the chance to win a copy of The Second World War: An Illustrated History by James Holland and illustrated by Keith Burns.

Spanning six years between 1939 and 1945 and costing the lives of over 60 million people, the Second World War was the greatest conflict in human history. While 300 million people saw combat around the globe, total war left no human life unaffected and would change the world forever. From the great cities of Europe to the jungles of Burma, and from to the deserts of North Africa to the remote islands of the South Pacific and the freezing waters of the Arctic, war touched every continent and ocean on the planet. And from the Blitzkrieg to the atom bomb, the fighting fuelled new technological development on land, at sea and in the air at a ferocious pace. Our future was forged by war.
