The Guns of August

Has anyone watched this documentary?

Believe it was produced in 1964 and deals with the run up to WWI - it is based off the Pulitzer Prize winning book "The Guns of August" which deals with the 30 days that lead up to WWI...

The 2 things that amazed me about it are:

1. All the crown heads of Europe before the start of WW1 are related to Queen Victoria of England

2. The video from 1910 to 1914 is amazing - its clear and depicts all the major actors of WW1.

If you are a student of history a must watch - it's totally biased against Germany but its good just to see the people you've read about in history books in motion pictures.

Did these 30 days occur in August?

Say what Nostradamus...stick to the Tarot.

Thank you for the video, it was great watching it. It's amazing that when old war footage is mentioned WWII is the first thing people think. The Great War was filmed and I wished more people took the time to record the old reel to reels on newer formatted recordings so that it could be viewed by the current populace.
