This collection is superb, I really wish I had known about it back when I was at school studying history. I am a bag fan of documentaries and as far as a detailed account on WWII this is just about the best that I have seen. It is such a definitive collection of archival footage, all compiled together into 5 documentaries. Great how they are compiled into separate sections. So for anyone only interested in specific parts can just have the parts they want.
