Title: Sweeping Vista of History
Review: Lovers of history are lovers of life lived. Wouk created a masterpiece in his historical novels of the time before and during the "Greater War" of the twentieth century. For those of us who have lived during this era, it is a gift to see that the scope of that conflagration along with the impact on the lives of individuals throughout the world will not be forgotten.The DVD is superb as it captures the essence of the novel and the times with scattershot views, of simultaneous events, leaping from Hawaii to Italy to Midway and back to Russia, yet never confusing the viewer, always providing insight and temporal clarity.This is a series to be conserved on disc for the ages. It will be viewed by generations to come, perhaps stored in some new medium not yet invented, but, captured for all time to come and to remember as the title notes.J H Keffer
