It is the most complete history of WW II from the Russian point of view. The western world has been exposed to very little of this conflict, and Burt Lancaster along with many historians have done a great job in bringing it to viewers.

Amazing production with great narrator. Original footage of the real battles from the archives of many countries involved plus interviews with the people who participated in these battles and survived the war.

If you own 1 World War II documentary video series, own this one. It is by far the best series I have ever seen on the sacrifices, sufferings, and hardships the Soviet people endured at the hands of the Nazis. I rank it right up there with the World at War documentary series. I had only a vague idea what the ordinary citizens of the Soviet Union suffered during World War II, until now. They were an unbelievably strong and courageous people and their sacrifices should never be forgotten. They, more than we defeated the Nazis.
While this documentary was made in 1978 when the Soviet Union was still alive, it still is a good 20-part story of the Russian participation in The Great Patriotic War. Very in-depth in all aspects in land, sea, and air including the end of the war against Japan. Well worth the price for any war historian.

Very well narrated. Plenty of combat footage. Limited quality due to age of the film from 1940's but ok. I enjoy greatly.
