Soldiers: A History of Men in Battle

Wars are conflicts between states and societies. Soldiers are the human means through which wars are fought. Soldiers, the major BBC series on the history of warfare, tells its story through the different types of soldiers who have fought each other since warfare began.
　　"War changes men and it changes Man; it alters our world and our history, our political systems, our social attitudes, our perceptions and our moralities. By showing how men go into it, pass through it and emerge from it, 'Soldiers' tells us something we need to know." - Frederick Forsyth
