Product Description

From the first musket shots at Lexington and Concord to the precision-guided munitions in modern-day Baghdad, America s history has been forged in the heat of battle. AMERICA AT WAR presents twenty-five documentaries from THE HISTORY CHANNEL, charting U.S. military conflict over two centuries. This fourteen disc set explores key moments of the American Revolution, the Alamo, the Civil War, World Wars I and II, as well as the conflicts in Korea, Vietnam, the Persian Gulf, and Iraq. The chronological collection draws upon the expertise of noted historians, military authorities, engineers, and war correspondents to convey the personal side of conflict not often found in history books. A trove of archival footage and documents brings viewers closer than ever to the heated heart of combat.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not very good at all, May 28, 2008
By Mark Moseley (Washington DC) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
These DVDs contain mostly personal stories and less historical accuracy of how each war broke out and why. It did not even go into why the American revolution started.

The video quality is awful.

The first three DVDs were pretty good, but the rest were lacking badly.

The invasion of Panama is gone from this set, although that was a major victory for the USA.

This set is great if you like the topic, but the same set is at Best Buy for $79 - $100 less than here.
