A lecture highlighting chronological elements of World War II. I say at the beginning of the lecture I won't go through the European elements of the war, then I did exactly that! :-) Unfortunately, I used the classroom maps, so it might be good to watch this with access to a good map of the war (for example, at http://www.mapsofworld.com/world-maps/world-war-ii-map-of-europe.html)
