An Incomplete History of World War I & II (2007) By Edwin Kiester
 
'An Incomplete History of World War I" takes the reader on an eccentric and exciting journey. Instead of providing a complicated and dense overview, it focuses on poignant events - extraordinary, heroic and obscure - ranging from little-known episodes in major Western Front battles to the valiant exploits of outlandish individuals on the remote frontiers of the conflict. It will help the reader not only understand the war's causes and effects but also to appreciate the profound and lasting ways in which it affected individual lives.
 
Rather than a dense, chronological overview of the war, 'An Incomplete History of World War II' takes readers on an eccentric and exciting journey through extraordinary, heroic and seminal episodes, from the storming of Beijing by the Japanese in 1937, to Rudolf Hesss 1941 mission of peace in Scotland, to Claus von Stauffenberg, the man who almost killed Hitler in 1944. Twenty-four amazing stories linked by one-page summaries that skim over the boring parts.
