First broadcast in 1973, it was a unique and irreplaceable record since many of the eyewitnesses captured on film did not have long to live. The show's producers committed hundreds of interview-hours to tape in its creation, but only a fraction of that recorded material made it to the final cut. The well-known names interviewed for the series include Albert Speer, Karl Wolff (Himmler's adjutant), Traudl Junge (Hitler's secretary), James Stewart (USAAF bomber pilot and Hollywood star), Anthony Eden, John Colville (Parliamentary Private Secretary to Winston Churchill), Averell Harriman (U.S. Ambassador to Russia), and Arthur \"Bomber\" Harris (Head of RAF Bomber Command). Richard Holmes has skillfully woven this valuable original material into a compelling narrative, creating a truly phenomenal oral history of World War II.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"I H Pentz Booksellers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47466386718882,"sku":null,"price":130.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0364\/4047\/3732\/files\/71LLZraU4cL._SL1170.jpg?v=1784809371","url":"https:\/\/pentzbooks.co.za\/products\/the-world-at-war-the-landmark-oral-history-from-the-classic-tv-series-by-richard-holmes","provider":"I H Pentz Booksellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
