In 1937, conflicts across the globe wreak new levels of destruction and suffering. A civilian massacre in Ethiopia, the bombing of Guernica in Spain, and the ‘Rape of Nanking’ in China, provide glimpses of what could be endured in another world war. Reports and images from these conflicts are received with horror and increasing alarm, but Britain, France and the USA cling to their policy of ‘non-intervention’. As the alliances that will define the next great war take shape, the drift towards it seems inescapable. Watch Epic History TV Season 12, Episode 2 Road to WW2: 1937 in HD free online.

Napoleon's Greatest Gamble: Escape from Elba

February 1815. A small flotilla slips silently across the Mediterranean. On board: a former Emperor and fugitive, attempting the most audacious comeback in military history. Napoleon Bonaparte has dominated Europe for a decade. Defeated, exiled, and written off by the great powers of the world, he is supposed to be finished. Instead, he sails from Elba with just 1,000 men, marches on Paris... and the continent holds its breath. This episode maps Napoleon's extraordinary march north — from his landing at Golfe-Juan to the gates of Paris — tracing every twist of his impossible gamble in vivid detail. The Hundred Days has begun. But with 200,000 exhausted troops facing a million-strong coalition, can Napoleon's genius survive what's coming?
