Reviews of the World War II Multimedia Database

"…Intensely rich…it shows remarkable sophistication and depth, and uses a fairly wide array of multimedia materials…" — Robert B. Townshend, American Historical Association, 2003

" An excellent resource in words, images and video." — Channel 4, United Kingdom

"One of the great problems with World War II web sites is that countless hobbyists litter the cyber-landscape with all sorts of irrelevant offerings. For the serious student of the war, it is difficult to find sites that contribute to a deeper understanding of the war and war-related issues. I have [selected] the following link in the hope of saving students from time consuming cyber-wandering through unimportant presentations…There is much of interest to see here." — Professor Bruce Hull, University of Maryland

"Provides historical and detailed information about World War II." — WNET "Secrets of the Dead," PBS
