Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have only looked at two of the discs in this set so far and they are all about how AMERICA won the the war. The title of the disc set should read: America_And How We Won The War.
This set is an absolute waste of £16.00, it is rubbish. The narrator never shuts up, the film quality is poor,the sound is'nt too bad, but wobbly in parts, nothing like the excellent quality of WORLD AT WAR series. The best place for this set of DVDs is in the DUSTBIN, where mine are going right now. The only part of this set worth keeping are the DVD cases. Do not waste your money. Like I said I have only seen two of the discs and I will not even bother to glance at the rest of them, the narration drives you nuts. If you want learn about World War Two, buy the WORLD AT WAR Set.

A big disappointment as only the USA's war is recorded. How anyone could produce a WWII documentary and not include the Battle of Britain in the 'Air War' section is, frankly, appalling - and an insult to the men who died, both British and Allies. I gave it away to a charity shop a few days after watching it. Was cheap, though, so...

Mainly American
Very American - You would hardly believe that the British and Commonwealth troops were in it. What else can I say!

Do you research
Do your research and heed the reviews of this set. It is clearly made for the USA and repackaged for the UK. Read more

There is a better alternative
Britain at War in Colour is far superior, narrated by John Thaw. Also available from Amazon.
However the length is half the length of this one, but at 3 hours is enough for me... Read more
