Take a visual journey through the epic events of World War II with the art of Mort Künstler World War II: 1939–1945 takes readers on a vivid journey through the most important events of the conflict, with illustrations by Mort Künstler—one of American’s foremost historical painters—and an inquiry-based text by renowned historian James I. Robertson, Jr. Young readers are encouraged to look for details and discover key moments of the war—including Pearl Harbor, D-Day, and the Battle of the Bulge—to learn how it really felt to be there. A timeline and short biographies of notable figures, such as Winston Churchill and Franklin Delano Roosevelt, provide excellent supplements to each chapter. From high-action combat to soldiers reflecting post-battle, each scene captures a historically accurate, visually rich portrait of the war. No other living historical artist is as celebrated as Künstler, and his work continues to attract history lovers of all ages.

Trish accidentally time travels to Lieutenant-Colonel Custer’s army camp during its final preparations for the 1873 Yellowstone Expedition. Luckily for her, she has her old-style flip cell phone with her, along with a ballpoint pen and plastic reading glasses. Even luckier, she is befriended by the regiment’s surgeon, who is officially in charge of her. He soon believes her story that she is from the future, and quickly realizes he can profitably take advantage of her knowledge of modern medicine – and future inventions, from automobiles to X-rays. But his female assistant is not as enamored with Trish as he is, finding her to be a real pain to deal with. Trish’s 21st century idioms and crudely blunt language make her a misfit in the crowd of 19th century Army officers and young soldiers– although they certainly enjoy being around her! Trish also discovers how time machines work.
