European Theater of War 1939 – 1945 [and] Far Eastern Theater of War 1941 – 1945

An American summation of World War II.

This pair of informative maps summarizing the global catastrophe of WWII was copywritten and published in 1945 by C.S. Hammond & Co. of New York. Each image presents a different theater (Europe and the Pacific); noting Axis/Allied territories, paths of advance, strategic supply routes, and important battles. The omission of the Second Sino-Japanese War and minimal detail on Eastern Front reflect a staunchly American perspective on the major events of the conflict.
