"A Major channel four series."--Container

Disc 1: To arms -- Under the eagle -- Global war -- Jihad -- disc 2: Shackled to a corpse -- Breaking the deadlock -- disc 3: Blockade -- Revolution -- disc 4: Germany's last gamble -- War without end

Ten-part series offers insight and analysis to provide a coherent and strategic military narrative. Places World War I in its proper global context, dispelling the conventional myth of the war as a European conflict only. The human tragedy is placed in a wider political and military context, going beyond the Western Front to encompas the entire world
