When the Germans invaded Poland on 1 September 1939 the world went to war for the second time in 27 years. One
country, albeit overtly expansionist in its aims, had simply invaded another, but the omens were not good.
Unbelievably, so soon after 'the war that will end war', nations and their leaders had allowed another conflict to
threaten the planet. The scope of this new war was not yet apparent, the truth dawning gradually; this one would last
six years, involve more than two hundred countries which caused millions of people to suffer, costing 55 million lives
and material damage of some 3 billion dollars, it affected the lives of three quarters of the worlds population and
influence the lives of the majority of the world's inhabitants to some degree.
