    Here is the audio companion to the magnificent seven-part PBS series. The individuals featured in this audiobook are not historians or scholars. They are ordinary men and women who experienced - and helped to win - the most devastating war in history, in which between 50 and 60 million lives were lost.

    "WWarII minimal"

    Story

    This is a maudlin account of war events and its american participants with little new insights or perspective. Post WWII Europeans and especially Americans have no knowledge of the terror and indescribable cynicism of that time - happily. This account by Burns is merely emotional without supplying the perspective that might make it relevant for our time.
