Summary
  • Desert victory: Documents the clash of Germany's General Rommel and Britain's General Montgomery as their militaries collide in battle under harsh desert conditions. Britain's defeat at El Alemein is only a stumbling block on the road to victory as they ultimately conquer the Germans at Tripoli. Utilizes actual German footage of Rommel and Hitler that was confiscated during the skirmish by the British
  • The Nazis strike: Masterfully compiled by Col. Frank Capra, features actual German archival footage - Nazi newsreel propaganda - as a forceful and revealing tool to expose the Third Reich's underhanded acts of political and military injustice
  • Here is Germany: uses German motion pictures, newsreels, U.S. War Department archival material and captured enemy material to trace the development of Germany as a military power from the time of Frederick the Great to the end of the Third Reich
  • The Spreading Holocaust summarizes the military events of 1941 and 1942, focusing on American involvement in the Pacific, Europe, and North Africa
  • How Hitler lost the war: Examines the theory that Germany essentially won and then lost World War II before 1942. A riveting and revealing alternative look at the theories behind and the flaws within Hitler's strategy, which ultimately resulted in Germany's defeat and the downfall of his regime
  • Hitler's Britain: Examines one of the most intriguing questions in history: What would the Nazis have done if they had conquered Britain?
