Episode Description from the Publisher

Why was there a stock market crash in 1929? How did The Great Depression help extremist political parties like the Nazis in Germany gain power? What did President Roosevelt's New Deal in the USA do to help America recover? Join Al Murray and James Holland for part 2 of their most ambitious series yet; a definitive survey of the 20th Century and how the First World War and economic instability of the 20s and 30s caused World War Two, and how the political vision of US Presidents like Roosevelt and Truman strengthened Western Democracies for the Cold War with the USSR.
