This fact means that we're losing more and more living memory of the greatest armed conflict in human history, which makes the study of World War II even more important.

To this end, Hillsdale College has produced an online course called "The Second World Wars."

Taught by historian Victor Davis Hanson, this course explores how the conflict's diverse theaters, belligerents, and ways of fighting came to define the war. And it examines the key investments, strategies, and leaders that led the Allied powers to victory over the Axis.
