What are some good non-textbook resources for someone to learn more about the world wars?
There are many podcasts and documentaries out there that center around the world wars. Some notable examples include Ken Burns' documentary The War which is about WWII, Dan Carlin's podcast series Blueprint for Armageddon which lays out the historical context leading to WWI and describes the war in great details. Non-fiction such as Anne Frank's diary provides painful insights to life as Jew who has to hide from Nazi's persecution. Some fictional movies and books can provide a historically accurate glimpse to the human conditions or the major battles of the war, including Band of Brothers, Schindler's List, All Quiet on the Western Front.
