Episode 132: Battles that Shaped the 20th Century

In this week’s episode and in a long overdue collaboration between Not So Quite on the Western Front and WW2 Both Sides of the Wire, four of us sit down to explore what we feel are the battles that, for one reason or another, shaped the course of the 20th century. Pre-order here: ⁠http://battleguide.co.uk/inferno Written by four historians, each bringing their own unique perspective, Inferno explores war on land, at sea, and in the air — from Mons in 1914 and the trenches of the Somme, to Stalingrad, Normandy, and the brutal final battles of the Pacific War. Across 12 in-depth chapters, we examine the battles that helped create the modern world: the experiences of those who fought them, the decisions that defined them, and the consequences that still shape our world today. Inferno is available now for pre-order in print and ebook, with an audiobook version narrated by Dan Hill.
