The colour map by Stanley Turner encompasses the area from England as far south as the French border with Spain and as far east as the USSR and Turkey. "With this invasion map you will be able to follow the progress of the Allied troops on their way to smash Germany.". The text at lower left goes on to elaborate on the features shown on the map, from elevation ("major battles are seldom fought on the tops of mountains") to pictographs of bombs falling. The black and white map on the verso shows the Far Eastern theatre of war, centring on the Pacific Ocean with the Asian landmass including India and the USSR at upper left, Australia at lower left and North America and the coast of South America at right of the map.

Good. Wear along original fold lines. Verso repair to a fold separation. Pinholing in corners and along sides. Dated Events Map of Europe on verso. Size 20 x 26 Inches. This is a Stanley Francis Turner map of the Pacific Theater of World War II (1939 - 1945), published in late October or early November 1944. As with Turner's other World War II maps, short text boxes highlight important events during the war up to publication, in this case from the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, until the U.S. invasion of the Philippines on October 17, 1944. A Closer Look - World War II in the Pacific Depicting from central India to Hawaii and from the Soviet Union and Alaska to northern Australia, Turner highlights Allied victories and Japanese expansion across the Pacific (including Corregidor, Bataan, and Guam). Text boxes inform on Japanese incursions into Manchuria, China, and French Indochina, as well as their alliance with the Axis. The Battle of Midway, Battle of the Coral Sea, and Battle of the Solomons are referenced by name. Red illustrates areas of under Allied control (India, Australia, and part of New Guinea). Pink, which colors the rest of New Guinea, part of New Britain, and most of the Solomon Islands, shades territory that has been retaken from the Japanese, and orange areas represent territory occupied by the Japanese. Verso Content: Dated Events War Map of Europe An edition of Turner's Dated Events War Map of Europe occupies the verso. This map is not as up to date as the recto map of the Pacific. Major events from 1944, including the D-Day landings, are not included, not to mention the complete lack of information concerning the 1943 invasion of Sicily. Intriguingly, other important events from 1943 do appear, including the Tehran Conference between Roosevelt, Churchill, and Stalin. The list of events on the Eastern Front (labeled 'The Great Russian Offensive') also includes events through the end of October 1943. Two polar inset maps occupy the upper corners.

Very good. Light wear along original fold lines. Light creasing. Size 19.75 x 26.125 Inches. This is a January 1942 Stanley Francis Turner Dated Events War Map of the Pacific and East Asia , published less than a month after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Turner produced the 'Dated Events War Map' series throughout World War II (1939 - 1945), creating more than 25 maps, which, as a whole, present a comprehensive cartographic overview of war events as they unfolded. The present map is the Second Edition, the earliest 'Dated War Events' map we have encountered - we've never seen the first issue. A Closer Look Coverage embraces from Lhasa, Tibet, and Rangoon, Burma (now Yangon) to Reykjavik, Iceland, and from the Arctic Circle to Cape Horn. Black textboxes mark events in the Pacific War from August 1940 (August 20, 1940, U.S.A. leases British ports for joint defense) through January 1942 (January 4, 1942, Chinese victory at Changsha). Most of the referenced events postdate the December 7, 1941, Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Earlier events include Japan joining the Axis (September 27, 1940), President Franklin D. Roosevelt signing the Lend-Lease Act (March 11, 1941), and the Vichy French surrender of Indochina to the Japanese (July 24, 1941). American, British, Dutch, French, Japanese, and Russian naval bases are marked using specific symbols for each nation. Illustrations of warships and military airplanes fill the Pacific. Color is used to highlight parts of the world under the direct control of the Americans (orange), British (red), and Japanese (black for the Home Islands and Korea and green for the occupied territory, including Manchukuo and French Indochina). Flags also help identify which country controls which territory. Aside from war-related content, cities and towns fill the map. The map also references natural resources key to the war effort, including oil, rubber, iron, copper, manganese, rice, and tea. Three insets appear along the bottom border: British India, a world map, and the transatlantic route between Natal, Brazil, and Dakar, French West Africa (now Senegal). Publication History and Census This map was created by Stanley Francis Turner, printed by R. G. McLean Limited, and published in 1942 by C.C. Petersen.

Good. Light wear along original fold lines. Verso repairs to fold separations. Closed tear extending 3.25 inches into printed area from bottom border to the right of the South Africa inset. Size 17 x 38.5 Inches. This 1944 Stanley Francis Turner map of Europe, Africa, and Asia illustrates the world on the eve of 1945, the final year of World War II (1939 - 1945). Text boxes scattered throughout chronicle important wartime events, including the D-Day invasion of France, the liberation of Paris, and MacArthur's return to the Philippines, along with numerous others. The United Nations are shaded red, while land controlled by the Axis is green. Light green areas (limited to Asia only) illustrate conquered areas still controlled by the Axis. Countries are labeled and bear their flag, while world capitals are marked by yellow banners and small icons of buildings. Illustrations of airplanes and warships dot the map. Aerial distance charts to Berlin and Tokyo also appear. A small inset along the bottom border illustrates southern Africa and Madagascar and uses the same color scheme to portray alliances. Empire Insets Six insets (five along the left side and one in the upper right corner) illustrate the greatest extent of six historic empires. These are the Persian Empire, the Empire of Alexander the Great, the Roman Empire, the Conquests of Islam, Napoleon's conquests in Europe, and Genghis Khan's conquests in Asia. Each inset features a portrait of the empire's leader and a short, simple history of each empire. Sponsored by Lipton Tea!
