Our war saga begins in 1914 when the European powers dominated the world. When the heir to the throne of Austria-Hungary was assassinated, it caused a spark that touched off a catastrophic conflict. Attempts to break the deadlock by frontal machine gun assaults led to enormous casualties and the development of new, more horrific weapons. This seven part documentary gives you an American perspective of the first of the 20th century's truly global wars.
