The writer and illustrator Pierre Dupuis illustrated the history of World War II in eleven large picture volumes, which garnered significant interest in many European countries. The history of World War II was originally published in the 1970s in France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, England, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland. "World War II in Pictures" has never been fully published in Germany. Now, for the first time, all stories will be released completely and chronologically in three integral volumes.
