"Just the facts ma'am, just the facts." could be Mr. Overy's motto. Many in general public assume the Allies winning WWII was all but a given. In reality the Allied were utterly unprepared for war in the late 1930's. Where the Axis had been planning and building for years. This highly detailed account describes the advantages and disadvantages of the Axis and Allies, both in men and material, at the start and then throughout the war. He has an unorthodox view regarding the true effects of the massive aerial bombings that cost so many lives on both sides. I highly recommend this book.
