This TV documentary series tells how in the twentieth century two superpowers and their allies clashed, and prepared for a conflict that could have ended the human race. Each of the 24 programs features one major topic and may be viewed on its own. The series begins in 1945, with a flashback to the Bolshevik Revolution, and advances to 1991. Part 1: Once allies against Hitler, the Soviet Union and the United States confront each other at the end of World War II. Looming over the postwar landscape is the awesome, mushroom-shaped cloud of the atomic bomb. |
