New perspectives on history’s great battles

About The Series

Even at this great distance, the stories behind the battles that shaped the history of the world continue to captivate people everywhere. It is not difficult to see why. The sheer scale of the fighting on military history’s great battlefields boggles the imagination and tales of courage on those same bloody fields make the heart beat a little faster. To think of the fate of nations being decided by a single stroke of military genius or by sheer ineptitude or by the vagaries of fortune tingles the spine…to imagine ourselves faced with the same dangers as those confronted by soldiers throughout the years makes the blood run cold.

All of these things go some way to explaining why military history holds such an enduring place in the popular imagination – and the time has come to tell the stories of these great episodes from the past in a completely new way.
