How Hitler could have won World War II

This volume illustrates the important battles of World War II and how certain key movements and mistakes by Germany were crucial in determining the war's outcome. The author maintains that Hitler should have swept through North Africa and captured the Suez Canal, thus cutting England off from its Empire, and then seized the oil rich lands of Iraq and Iran. He feels that Hitler could have done this with a fraction of the forces he used to invade the Soviet Union in the spring of 1941. The author also feels that Germany should not have declared war on the United States on December 11, 1941 (days after Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor), and that this would have assuredly kept the U.S. out of the European conflict further cementing England's ultimate defeat and with it Germany's eventual victory in Europe.
