Memorable Quote (from the book)
"The Second World War was not fought for territory alone it was a fight for survival, ideology, and the fate of humanity."
Translation (Sinhala):
"දෙවැනි ලෝක යුද්ධය යුධ භූමියකට පමණක් නොව, මනුෂ්යත්වයෙහි අනාගතය සඳහා වූ සටනක්ද විය."
Translation (Tamil):
"இரண்டாம் உலகப்போர் என்பது நிலத்திற்கான போரல்ல அது மனிதகுலத்தின் வாழ்விற்கான ஒரு போராட்டம்."
