James Dunnigan and Albert Nofi, authors of Dirty Little Secrets, tell the story behind history in Dirty Little Secrets of World War II. With its trademark irreverent style, this book offers little known facts about the largest war in history.

Much of what Dunnigan and Nofi reveal in this accessible and entertaining book is unknown even to military history buffs. Learn about the "new age" general, who lived on a vitamin-enriched diet, opposed animal experimentation, and regularly consulted his astrologer; the unusual relationship between Germany and Japan; and lingering effects of the war that impact people to this day. Dirty Little Secrets of World War II exposes the irreverent, misunderstood, and often tragicomic aspects of the war.

James F. Dunnigan is the author of many books and over a hundred historical simulations. He has been a lecturer to the State Department, the CIA, and the U.S. Army War College. He lives in New York City.
