Delivered from Evil: The Saga of World War II by Robert Leckie
/r/history says it's the best one-volume history of WW2 that exists.
Link to the /r/history Recommended Reading List for those who are curious.
I like the books by Robert Leckie.
From our reading list here at /r/History:
Robert Leckie wrote several good histories of the major American wars. Helmet for My Pillow was used to form part of the basis for the HBO Miniseries "The Pacific". But I am more a fan of his individual war histories:
/r/books or /r/AskHistorians might be a better place to get this information.
Andrew Roberts, a British military Historian wrote a well reviewed book called The Storm of War regarding the second world war.
If you are looking for a one volume history, something like Delivered From Evil is very good.
You may also want something on Churchill, and many many good books exist on the man. I am most excited though for one which hasn't even come out yet: The Last Lion: Defender of the Realm. William Manchester wrote two previous volumes that are the definitive biography of Churchill, up until 1940. The last volume is slated for release in November. It's not by a Brit, but it's hard to get more British than Churchill.
