Why tonight?
- One season, and then it ends — a story with a last episode, not a habit.
The story
The story of the Second World War through the personal accounts of a handful of men and women from four American towns. The war touched the lives of every family on every street in every town in America and demonstrated that in extraordinary times, there are no ordinary lives.
