Product Description
According to the United Nations, there are over 200 wars raging at any given time. As much as we abhor war, it has been prevalent throughout human history. It's even recorded in old bible literature. Is it bad? Is it good? Is there an in-between? Can we actually avoid war or prevent it? A look at some fairly recent, large battles helps provide a unique educational perspective.
The Most Significant, Decisive and Bloodiest Days of War! This unique collection is an insightful multimedia analysis of five decisive battles that will go down in history as the most massive, decisive and bloodiest days of war. Listen to audio commentary as you view hundreds of archival photographs and historical paintings by the greatest war artists of the period. You'll explore the strategic battlefield plans, understand the circumstances leading up to war, meet the larger-than-life personalities of key generals and experience the enormity of the sacrifice of the fallen. The Battles: Gettysburg- The bloodiest battle of the Civil War, with more than 51,000 casualties, resulting in a hallmark victory for the Union Army. D-Day-. The largest military force ever amassed for invasion turned the tide of World War II. As that pivotal day ended with 20,000 casualties and so much at stake, it earned the nickname of ""The Longest Day"". Verdun-The lengthiest battle in world history, situated on a tiny piece of land resulting in 700,000 casualties, fought only for national prestige during World War I. Austerlitz- Napolean's French troops trick and then claim victory over the Russian and Austrian emperors. Culloden- The infamous ""Well of the Dead"" marks the spot where the fighting was most fierce in this final battle for monarchy control of mainland Britain in 1746.

The worst online purchase, Wondering why Amazon.com not helping me. July 29, 2008
Shalom (CA USA)
This program which was purchased through Amazon.com did not open in my well-functioning desktop computer. I complained of the problem through e-mail but the manufacturer(Global Software Publishing)asked nonsense questions regarding my well-functioning computer. They never mentioned re. refund. On the registration form, U.S.A. is not listed, so you cannot register and the program would work. I complained to Amazon.com which my whole family trust, did not help me, either. Our family is wondering, why Amazon.com included this item in their business.
The rate of this item is much less than 1 star !!!
