Question

I need to know everything I can about world war 2. Please help me...

Answer 1

One of the best sources of information I've seen so far is a series of three videos, entitled Why We Fight. It doesn't cover absolutely everything; it was used to educate American troops about ... why they were fighting... so it doesn't cover the end of WWII. (Which it's really easy to find stuff about, anyhow.) It also doesn't cover the Holocaust especially well, which I suppose is its main failing point, but again, if you can't find stuff on the Holocaust... yeah. It does at least show how Americans had no idea what was going on there.

But it goes over a bunch of stuff, from Hitler's rise to power to the invasions of Manchuria and Ethiopia, the Blitz (which my idiot teacher NEVER MENTIONED in our WWII unit. Stupid American nationalistic POV.) and the battles in Russia (half tragic, half immensely inspirational). These weren't mentioned in my history class either, but are essential to WWII. Obviously it goes over more stuff, those are just the things that come to mind.

Or you know, you could find one of those Eyewitness Books. Those are usually pretty good. And it'd probably take a lot less time than watching all three installments of Why We Fight.
