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.

 Lots of info January 6, 2009
I got this dvd set for my husband, the history geek. He loves it. And I love that Amazon has it at such a great price.

I got this DVD for my husband for fathers day and he absolutely loves it; he loves the history of war. He is very knowledgeable about past wars and always talks history with others.
 Not very good at all May 29, 2008

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.
Great set - awful price March 29, 2008

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