Wars And Civilizations - Blood And Iron
Narrated by Walter Cronkite, each episode of War & Civilization takes an in-depth look at the history of war, seemingly one of humanity's favorite pastimes. Based on the work of noted historian John Keegan, each entry is the history of an important development in the evolution of armed conflict from technological breakthroughs to tactical innovations. In this episode, viewers learn how industrialization transformed how wars would be fought, and what the influence of journalists on the battlefield would be. The Crimean and American Civil Wars are focused on. ~ Rob Ferrier, All Movie Guide
