Battle of the Coral Sea

A History from Beginning to End

The Battle of the Coral Sea was a major naval conflict which took place a month before the Battle of Midway.

Battle of France

A History from Beginning to End

That France and Germany were enemies in 1940 was not news to anyone. That Germany was bitter at the terms of its surrender at the end of World War I was hardly a surprise.

A Life from Beginning to End

Subhas Chandra Bose was a revolutionary who sought Indian independence, but as many would contend, he ended up on the wrong side of history.
