CNN Perspectives Presents Cold War (12 Tapes) http://www.amazon.com/CNN-Perspectives-Presents-Cold-Tapes/dp/B000ELYCPO http://www.amazon.com/Cnn-Cold-War-8pc-VHS/dp/078062386X/ref=pd_sim_v_2 If anything defined the 20th century as the age of anxiety, it's the cold war with its ultimate no-win nuclear endgame. While conflicts in Korea and Vietnam dragged on, providing the traditional images of modern warfare, some of the conflict's most dangerous battles were invisible--tactical, intellectual, and fought primarily in the minds and war rooms of U.S. and Soviet leaders: Kennedy, Krushchev, Castro, Kissinger, Gorbachev, and Reagan. This 12-volume, 24-episode series, narrated by Kenneth Branagh, is a comprehensive history that examines the key events of the arc of the Soviet Union, from its birth to its fall, and provides a thorough analysis of what was going on behind closed doors. Informed by the stories of 500 eyewitnesses--from citizens and soldiers to historians and statesmen--and strengthened by painstaking reconstruction of archival historical film footage, CNN's Cold War is a heroic undertaking and a sweeping chronicle of the world's most fragile decades.

This is a great series. Thanks for the upload. Two episodes seem to be missing however. It´s episode 7- "After Stalin", on tape 4 and episode 12-"MAD", on tape 6.

Oh man! I've been waiting sooo long for this to become available, I registered just to say thanks. It apparently has footage re-classified as secret after Sep. 11, so this is freedom of information at work.

Any ideas as to which part could have been re-classified?
The Star Wars section has such little information about SDI, hard to imagine that section being it.
