The enormous loss of life and physical destruction caused by the First World War led people to hope that there would never be another such catastrophe. How then did it come to be that there was a Second World War causing twiceas much loss of life and more destruction than any other previous conflict? In this Very Short Introduction, Gerhard L. Weinberg provides an introduction to the origins, course, and impact of the war on those who fought and the ordinary citizens who lived through it. Starting by looking at the inter-war years and the German invasion of Poland in September 1939, he examines how the war progressed by examining a number of key events, including the war in the West in 1940, Barbarossa, the German Invasion of the Soviet Union, the expansion of Japan's war with China, developments on the home front, and the Allied victory from 1944-45. Exploring the costs and effects of the war, Weinberg concludes by considering the long-lasting mark World War II has left on society today.

Cards falls out
Material Type: Leather, Color: Coffee8143
It's a beautiful wallet and would literally be perfect for what I need, but for whatever reason the pop up section of cards that is the main feature doesn't hold cards well. My cards especially my debit card fall out easily and it is really inconvenient and makes it impossible to use that main slot. I got my wife a different wallet from the same brand though and that wallets pop up slot holds the cards perfectly and locks them in well. I guess this wallet was an older model?

. It's great for storing credit cards
Material Type: Leather, Color: Black8141
I bought this as a gift for my husband. It's great for storing credit cards. They don't fall out and slide out with a side lever. And as far as I understand, it has protection against scammers who could scan your pocket and steal all your money. It's very well made. Genuine leather. Comes in a beautiful craft box.
