Book Reviews of World War II Memorial (Symbols, Landmarks, and Monuments)
Book Review: A Brief History to Explain to our Kids what Happened
Summary: 5 Stars
To we old folks, World War II is a real memory. It has become part of our lives in a way that subsequent wars cannot. It was a war of emmense porportions, truly a world war fought in every time zone the world has.
Yet, in a city of monuments there was no memorial to this war for sixty years. Finally, on May 29, 2004 this memorial was finally dedicated in the middle of the Washington Mall.
This small book (exceedingly well bound to give it a long life in a library) is designed to assist children to understand the cultural importance of this war. While not the war to end all wars, this war probably marks the end of huge superpower wars. With atomic weapons, such wars as this could never be fought without ending life as we know it.
