Dan explains that the World Wars – particularly World War II – form the founding myth of our modern era. Then, he argues that the time is right for a re-evaluation of that myth in the light of a less biased history.
He’ll also provide a preview of the rest of Season 2, an overview of his research method, and an explanation of what he will and won’t be doing.
