Historian James Holland goes inside the Nazi war machine, exploring the extraordinary weapons produced under the Third Reich, in a series that includes rare archive material. James will be assisted by engineers and mechanics from across Europe who helped to restore some of the greatest fighting machines the planet has ever seen. He will explore how the Nazis progression in technology pushed the Allies to go even further.
