Churchill's Island also examines the United Kingdom's war at sea and their valiant efforts to ward off German ships attempting to sink anything they could find in British waters. Lorne Greene narrates this version; a version prepared for distribution in France is narrated by Gerard Arthur. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
