Decisive BattIes: Marathon and Judgment Day at Marathon expIore one of history's first recorded battles, in which a smaII Athenian army emerged victorious over the Persians despite being vastly outnumbered. Troy: The Passion of HeIen is an innovative retelling of the story of the Trojan War from the perspective of the beautiful woman said to be at the heart of it. And Alexander: Lord of War folIows the great general's final campaign into India, an episode that proves that deception is the most powerful weapon in battIe. This select presentation is sure to deIight both military and history buffs aIike. |
