Purnell's History of the Second World War was a hugely successful weekly anthology or 'partwork' publication covering all aspects of World War II that was distributed throughout the English-speaking world. Produced shortly after the similarly accomplished 8-volume series on WW1, it was first published in 1966.
The magazine was notable for its use of multiple writers – many of them well-known military figures – from all relevant nationalities in order to present a rounded view of the subject material. This was combined with high-quality original artwork of the military hardware used, maps and numerous previously unseen photographs, some of them quite gruesome.
Binder covers showing shelfwear, rubbing, age and dust stained, gilded lettering worn and rubbed. Metal holders in binder with light to moderate rust stains. Each individual Part or Booklet is in very good condition and in well preserved condition.
