It involves every class of ship, submarine, aircraft, and fighting unit from the navies, armies, and air forces of the world.

Palmer demonstrates tremendous vision as he creates global war in intimate and exciting detail.

With solid historical background and complete with maps, The War That Never Was presents a grim yet fascinating look at a future that never happened.
