A film series based on Sir Winston Churchill's Memoirs of World War II.

In spite of the non-aggression pact, Hitler invades Russia and city after city falls to the Nazi troops, who are only halted by Russia's oldest ally-winter. Churchill crosses the Atlantic to meet Roosevelt, and the Atlantic Charter - a reaffirmation of human rights - is signed and is an inspiration to the whole freedom-loving world. In December the Russians launch a counter-attack, and the same month the Japanese bomb the American fleet in Pearl Harbour. The United States is in the war, side by side with Britain.
