The Storm of War
The Storm of War is a non-fiction book authored by British historian and journalist Andrew Roberts. It covers numerous historical factors of the Second World War such as Adolf Hitler's rise to power and the organisation of Nazi Germany as well as numerous missteps made by the dictatorial regime. The inherent failures of the Axis powers helped in the massive efforts to force their defeat, which constitutes in Roberts' opinion, despite the massive bloodshed during the war, a moral triumph over authoritarianism by idealistic democracy. Praise has come from several publications; examples include "The Daily Beast", "The Economist". and "The Observer".

It additionally received the British Army Military Book of the Year Award for 2010. The book has also achieved commercial success, reaching the #2 slot on "The Sunday Times" best-seller list. In terms of legacy, Roberts is perhaps best known intentionally for "The Storm of War", though his later biographical works focusing on Napoleon Bonaparte and Winston Churchill have also attracted significant attention.
