Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Peach!
If your a WW1 buff you'll really enjoy this series. Not the end of the rainbow but a good solid overview nicely presented.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very satisfied
I found this documentary very informative. I claim to be a WW1 buff and it showed me a brand new perspective.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - DVD, is the gem!
If you've seen is on PBS or the military channel you know why it's perhaps the most important break down of events in the past century and while it doesn't cover WWII it explains it's roots, the cold war and the basis for issues in the world today. Outstandingly done history that you wish was how other things were presented. Better than perhaps Ken Burns' civil war series.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - First World War
A very thorough documentary but a little dry. I was pleased with the film footage available and was impressed with the diaries of a few civilians who wrote a very accurate account of what took place. A couple of whom were only 10 or 11 years old at the time.

For someone who is interested in history, I would recommend this DVD set.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent product
If you are interested in WWI, this DVD set is amazing. All original footage. Extensive coverage. Highly recomended.
