WWII

WWII in HD
$29.95
This entire series is masterfully done! Instead of a bunch of facts and figures delivered by the usual talking heads often seen in documentaries, this series focuses on 12 individuals that were on the front lines during the war. The battles of WWII are told in their own words, through their letters, reports, and interviews, making the entire documentary intensely personal. The narration provided by Gary Sinise seamlessly intertwines the personal accounts with the facts of the battles and strategies used, giving the viewer all of the background information they need to understand what's going on without being the least bit intrusive. The added backdrop of the never-before-seen color WWII footage of the events really makes it seem as if the viewer is right in the middle of the action; watching and experiencing everything for themselves. History teachers and textbook authors take note: this is how history should be taught!

I Can't Forget: A Journey Through Nazi Germany and WWII
$14.99
This is a book about a young girl growing up during the Nazi period and WWII in Germany and Poland. It ends with a perilous flight from Poland in advance of Russian troops and the effort of starting a new life in the chaos of the immediate postwar years. It is so well written that I couldn't put it down, rare for me. The personal story is by turns, humorously touching and heart rending. The historical detail is eye opening and quite different from what we have been taught in school or seen in the popular media. I highly recommend it.
