An important wartime work by Louis Fischer (1896–1970), the distinguished American journalist and foreign correspondent who reported extensively from Europe, Russia, and India. Written during the Second World War, Dawn of Victory examines the Allied war effort and the political and military developments shaping the conflict, with particular attention to Britain, Russia, and the emerging international order. Fischer drew upon his firsthand experience as a foreign correspondent and his extensive knowledge of European and Soviet affairs. Fischer's wartime analysis attracted substantial contemporary attention, appearing in reviews while the conflict was still underway.
