War Of The Worlds (CD) by Orson Welles

1 recommendation

"On October 30, 1938, Orson Welles launched himself into mass American consciousness by broadcasting the invasion of earth by Martians on the Mercury Theater on Air show. The radio adaptation of the H.G. Welles classic of the same name was performed by Welles in a realistic news break style that many listeners mistook as real. According to some, widespread panic ensued...whether this is true or n..."

Ken Burns' THE WAR on DVD

3 recommendations

"I know people could probably argue that there are too many history movies and documentaries on World War 2. But the War By Ken Burns is different. The thing I liked most is that it tells the stories of the wars effect on individuals back at home, not just on the war front. At times the series can be quite emotional. It does tell the story from an American perspective, but this makes it all th..."

The Fog of War

1 recommendation

"2003 was the year of the documentary, Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth notwithstanding. There was My Architect: A Son's Journey and Osama's favorite, Fahrenheit 911 and this - Robert McNamara candidly talks about his experiences in WWII and as Secretary of Defense during the Vietnam War."

Interviews with soldiers, Americans of Japanese descent and their loved ones give this documentary the additional benefit of first-person narrative. 15 hours of coverage in all, this documentary would be difficult to view in one sitting and some parts may best..."

The Rape of Nanking: The Forgotten Holocaust of World War II

2 recommendations

"This is one of the hardest books you could read... half way through it. Very important, highly recommend it. Wikipedia has more on the Nanjing massacre. Sadly, the author Iris Chang committed suicide in Los Gatos in November of 2004. She was working on her next book on the Bataan Death March. Heavy stuff. Makes our little world, and the debates we have seem so small and insignificant. Perspecti..."
