The Story of the Second World War For Children by Peter Chrisp
The Story of the Second World War for Children shows the impact of the war on the lives of the people who lived through it, from children evacuated to the countryside, to bombed-out cities and civilians working in munitions' factories, and the soldiers fighting on land, sea and air. This book also looks at how the war led to major advances in technology, medicine and weaponry. Feature boxes throughout highlight subjects of particular interest to children, such as life inside a U-boat and tips for a jungle fighter. Maps and cross-section artworks of the insides of famous tanks, aircraft, U-boats, aircraft carriers add extra detail and fascination for children.
Peter Chrisp is a experienced and entertaining children's author, who has written many history books for young people. After completing an MA at London University he got a job at the Mass-Observation Archive. This inspired him to write his first history books for children and he has been a freelance writer since 1990. He is particularly fascinated by the ancient world, and has enjoyed visiting the archaeological sites of Greece and Rome.
