It's a bunch of documentaries covering alot of the major battles in WWII. Here are the list of each of the docs:
-Battle of Norway
-Dunkirk
-The Bombing of England
-The Battle of Malta
-The Fall of Singapore
-Pearl Harbor
-The Battle of Midway
-The Solomon Islands
-North Africa
-Burma: The Forgotten Front
-The Gilbert Islands
-DDay
-Retaking France
-Operation Dragoon
-Battle in Palau
-Monte Cassino
-Liberation of the Phillippines
-The Last Stronghold
-Battle of the Bulge
-Mount Hot Rocks (Iwo Jima)
I think its pretty good. I haven't watched all of them, (just a couple, like DDay, Battle of Britain, Battle of the Bulge), but what I've seen so far is pretty informative and well put together. It features real footage taken during WWII (in color) and all that plus interviews with Veterans of each of the battles (on both sides) and historians and the like. Its all pretty good stuff.
I bought it at Costco for $19 CDN (a very good deal), but I'm not sure if they have that store in the states, but I saw it at Best Buy, so you'll probably want to check there.
Or you could just order it online:
