Abstract |
Until today, our collective memories of World War II have lived almost exclusively in black and white. Recently re-discovered color film archival materials, assembled after years of research, offer a new perspective on everything from the war's most critical battles and key personalities to details of life on the home front to the plight of uprooted refugees. This segment covers the events of Pearl Harbor through D-Day. |
