Really Readable Resource Maps of WW II,
By Regis Schilken "Rege" (Bethel Park, Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Big Book of World War II: Fascinating Facts about WWII Including Maps, Historic Photographs, and Timelines (Hardcover)
The The Big Book of World War II is a great teaching tool to use in conjunction with histories of World War II. The maps are enormous, easy to read, easy to follow. They show troop movements and types of units as they move precariously into place to encounter war enemy both in Europe and in the Pacific.
If you teach a course in WW II history, the maps in this book will make your class presentations all the more interesting. [...]

I really liked the content of this book, however I would've appreciated it if the seller had taken the $7.99 sale price sticker off the front cover before shipping it to a customer who paid $18.99 plus shipping for it. Mocking, while great fun I'm sure, won't garner them a lot of return sales.
